I haven't seen any films directed by Andrew Niccol but based on his Wikipedia profile, he made good films tackling different issues, though he's into fictional setting? Do you think this will be an all-English film? Andrew Niccol's best work is (and will always be) The Truman Show, be it as a writer or director. His main genre is futuristic sci-fi, which sounds like this movie has elements of it. Some of his other popular works are Gattaca (Ethan Hawke/Uma Thurman), S1m0ne (Al Pacino) and In Time (Justin Timberlake). All those movies are heavy on sci-fi. He has worked on both mainstream and indie projects in Hollywood. 9 2 1 2 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EdelweissTX Posted July 6, 2020 Share Posted July 6, 2020 Exactly i dont think marriage is out of the picture as a lot can happen between now and March 2021. She doesn’t have to retire to get married to her prince HB. She’s so deserved this opportunity. 14 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Waiting for it to be reported in Variety and Hollywood Reporter and which studio is backing it up, Right now, Hollywood is quiet because of the pandemic. Sam Worthington is Hollywood ALister and she SYJ is the biggest Korean star. This will not be a small budget film. I am sure she is in talks about having representation in Hollywood. (I am sure the big agencies UTA, Endeavor CAA are clamoring to get her. I am sure HB is proud of her as we are! 11 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ElectricHearts Posted July 6, 2020 Share Posted July 6, 2020 @junejune_16 my guess was SYJ would speak English and Korean? I have only seen his movie The Host - that was sci fic/action/romance @Beadharmony I know! I just was responding to marriage being off the table lol. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post slowpoked Posted July 6, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted July 6, 2020 Just to give you more reasons to jump for joy and/or be excited about this movie: Andrew Niccol was nominated at the Oscars for Best Original Screenplay for The Truman Show. SYJ will work with Academy-Award Nominee Andrew Niccol. Here in Hollywood, once you get nominated and/or won an Oscar, you will forever have that qualifier before they introduce/speak your name. 9 9 5 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

QueenieBee Posted July 6, 2020 Share Posted July 6, 2020 Awesome news for SYJ! Really exciting to know I can watch one of her films in theaters here in North America at some point I really like Sam Worthington. I keep wondering when the Avatar sequel(s) will finally be released because that has kept him pretty busy. Are they even done filming? James Cameron is known to take forever to finish his films. Great to finally have some news! Only posting this gif because I think Chris Pratt can sometimes resemble Sam Worthington 3 13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You don't have to have a baby at age 40 lol. Choi Ji woo (who had her cameo on CLOY) recently gave birth to her first child and she is 45 years old!! Age doesn't matter in the end. Plus in reality she is 39 next year but yes she is 40 years old next year if you go by Korean age. 8 8 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BinjinHAB Posted July 6, 2020 Share Posted July 6, 2020 48 minutes ago, Loveumore said: Thank you for sharing this. Glad that she will achieve something outside korea. More power to her. And may the Lord bless her even more than we can imagine. So marriage be out of the picture for now. We just keep praying and hoping that one day she will consider this wonderful thoughts together with her love of her life. Hope both are doing great. Shippers we all be proud for the other half. Nxt year she will be busy and perhaps the handsome HB will take turn to take care of her . Again keep your prayers up for them and never give up. Life is full of surprises.. Sometimes you don't need to plan, Sometimes we just need to breath, trust and let go and see what happens next.. QUE SERA SERA Yes never give up.. continue our love and support to BinJin and who knows one day ( soon hopefully) this ship will finally dock. 17 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post cloyfan Posted July 6, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted July 6, 2020 It seems some of us have reservations about this news because we may have certain expectations of what a woman should do after marriage (fingers crossed about the marriage part). And if the shoe were on the other foot and it was news of HB getting casted in a Hollywood movie slated to begin filming in March, I don't think anyone would have any qualms about it. So let's be fair here - a KOREAN WOMAN who has worked her butt off for 20 years in the Korean entertainment industry is getting a crack at Hollywood. How could she possibly pass that up? No one deserves it more than her. Plus this will be a movie (which usually doesn't take as long to film as dramas) filmed in Korea (and not the US). This is a chance for Binjin to show just how supportive of each other and how willing they are to compromise to form a lasting union 10 44 8 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you think this will be an all-English film? For sure its an english film since the main producer is from the west but there might be a korean sub or aside from korean to cater for non-english viewers. And i guess at this moment of her quietness, she is spending more time polishing her english language skills. Cannot wait for next year yah!!! 11 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post ninjayejin Posted July 6, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted July 6, 2020 I think we should ALL wait for an official confirmation from them before we start panicking that her casting in a movie for Hollywood will push their "lives" back . These type of speculations always bother me because we are not entitled to have opinions as such , yes we can speculate but with a certain degree of understanding. Nothing is set on stone . She was offered a role in a Hollywood movie - set to be filming in Korea if anything - other couple fans in the past have done the same mistakes - dictating lives - placing pressure. We don't even know if they are together or not and you all stressed about it already. Learning from the past mistakes of others can make us better. We are not to repeat the past . Reasons why we always campaigned for them to keep private what they have so fans won't feel entitled to their personal lives to such degree and the media won't turn their lives to a documentary with people invading their privacy. They are both professionals , if her fans know she loves her job and what she does im sure her "special" one does and wouldn't dictate and keep her from doing that. He would cheer for her and be there for her because its a big step and she deserves to get recognition and work from a field she didn't work before. People can get married , make plans and work at the same time . Who knows HB might film as well so they will be both busy anyways. Keep the faith . Girl will need someone to accompany her in the promos abroad if she accepts . Less pictures this time yeah??? 15 8 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post TotoroSY Posted July 6, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted July 6, 2020 1 hour ago, ednamode101 said: Son Ye Jin may be gearing up for her Hollywood debut! On July 6, Korean media outlet Star News reported that according to sources in the movie industry, Son Ye Jin has been confirmed to star in the upcoming Hollywood film “Cross.” The actress is said to be starring in the movie opposite Sam Worthington, who is best-known for his roles in “Avatar” and the “Clash of the Titans” film series. “Cross” will be directed by Andrew Niccol, who is known for his sci-fi movies like “In Time,” “The Host,” and “Gattaca”—and for being the writer behind the famous 1998 film “The Truman Show.” The movie will be set in the future, in a multiracial country divided into two nations by a border. “Cross” will tell the story of the people caught in between these two nations, one of which is wealthy and one of which is impoverished. 1 hour ago, ednamode101 said: Meanwhile, Cross aims to start shooting in Korea next March. It is said that director Andrew Nicole had been thinking about shooting Korean separately from COVID-19, but North America appreciates that COVID-19 is serious, but that filming in Korea is normal. MEGA CONGRATS TO SON YE JIN!! What an amazing news!! No wonder she has kept so quiet post CLOY. They were probably working out all the details for this movie before the official announcements! Great to hear its gonna shoot in Seoul next year. More time to prep and also the pandemic situation will be in better control by then. AJA AJA HWAITING YE JIN!! 17 1 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Cherie Cee Posted July 6, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted July 6, 2020 Exciting news to hear that SYJ is considering appearing in a Hollywood film. That will certainly up her game! It will not be a surprise should she and HB eventually cross over to Hollywood due to the overwhelming success of CLOY worldwide. Plus the phenomena of CLOY has not waned one bit despite the drama being finished since February, a lot of people from all over are only discovering it now. I have a friend who just watched CLOY last week, and ofcourse unsurprisingly, she found it awesome and wants to beat herself up why it took her so long to see it! What I do hope is if BinJin do make Hollywood projects, that they are good and will have value and relevance, story wise, production wise, a movie that will become successful in every way to mark their entry. Cross, based on the story to film in Korea sounds promising. And I totally support SYJ on this road and firmly believe that her future works will not derail her personal life. A lot of successful actress do balance career and family, and YJ is definitely capable. So you go girl!!! Now, with regards to how much HB gets for his CFs and his fees for dramas, I do agree, it is a staggering amount. Kudos to him as he has worked hard to be where he is now. And i will say it, honey you are worth every penny! What cannot be measured and no amount of money can ever pay, is the joy he brings to fans everywhere, from all walks of life, be it from 7 year olds to 77 years old! More power to both SYJ and HB! The future is certainly full of promise. 19 15 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ElectricHearts Posted July 6, 2020 Share Posted July 6, 2020 Let's remember they even won a poll together back in August 2006 of who people want to date lol. It isn't even officially confirmed yet! I am sure it will work out well in the end 4 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
