New Posters of "The Message" Released

Huayi Brothers, China's largest movie production company, has released six new posters for its upcoming WWII espionage film, "The Message".

The thriller tells about the factional infighting in the Japanese-controlled Chinese puppet government in the 1940s.

A-list actresses Zhou Xun and Li Bingbing are featured as two code-breakers.

Zhou Xun, best known for her highly emotional roles, puts on an impassive and thoughtful face. Li Bingbing, who plays the senior of Zhou Xun, appears in the poster with a questioning, sober and intellectual look.

Zhang Hanyu, Ying Da and Wang Zhiwen are cast as three senior military officials, all deeply ambitious politicians. A fake scar on Zhang Hanyu's chin is the only unexpected element in the posters.

Alec Su, who plays the assistant to the commander in chief, may be making the biggest career shift with the new film. Donning military uniforms and affecting an almost vicious gaze, he looks completely different from his sunshine-boy image.

"Perhaps Love" actress Zhou Xun has split with Li Daqi, her boyfriend of five years, Zhou's publicist said Wednesday.

In a press release sent to Sohu.com, Huang Feng says Zhou and Li chose to be friends after being separated for most of the time. "Both are passionate about their careers and have little time to be together," the agent says.

Li Daqi, who is a popular stylist, met Zhou Xun in 2003 when he worked with the actress-turned singer for her debut album, "Summer". Zhou admitted the relationship in July, 2004.

Zhou was once quoted by the media as saying that Daqi was the right man for her to marry.

Before Li Daqi, Zhou had a romance with actor Li Yapeng, who is now married to pop diva Faye Wong.
