Hong Kong's comedy king Stephen Chiau Sing-chee says plans are afoot for a Hollywood version of his movie, God of Cookery .
Speaking from Kuala Lumpur, he said Jim Carrey had reportedly shown an interest in the film. But Chiau said planning was still at an early stage.
He is now promoting his latest flick, King of Comedy , in which he plays a movie extra who sets up a neighbourhood theatre to teach acting.
Also starring are Cecilia Cheung and Karen Mok.
Chiau said he picked Cheung after seeing her in a commercial. The movie is now showing in Hong Kong, Singapore and Malaysia.
There is a rumour that Vivian Lai Shu-yan is about to get married. As for her three concerts on the mainland during the Lunar New Year, the singer said she did not make a lot of money from the shows, but was happy to meet some of her fans and old friends.
There was tight security at the performances, with reporters and photographers kept away from Lai.
