Wu Zun as Liang Shanbo's reincarnation
Charlene as Zhu Yintai's reincarnation
Hu Ge as Ma Wen Cai's reincarnation

A collaboration between China, HK, and Taiwan, Sword Butterfly is an after-life of Butterfly Lovers (LiangZhu).

Charlene's quick summary of the plot:

Ah Sa introduced the reporter to the introduction of the movie. The movie “Sword Butterfly” is actually originated from the tradition butterfly love story, but it would be a reincarination, where the main leads meet once again in the next life. Between them a new story will occur. Director Ma Chu Cheng said that in the piece Liang Shanbo (Wu Zun), Zhu Yingtai (ah Sa) and Ma Wencai (Hu Ge) will be kung fu masters in the martial arts world, and will show them in the the school setting following the original story. Ma Wencai and Liang Shanbo are main compeitors in the martial arts world, moreover Liang Zhu (Wu Zun and ah Sa) excelled with sword. There will be a splendid scene in the movie where the two brandished a sword, and Ma Wencai excels with the knife, he once rescued Zhu Yingtai’s entire family using his skills. When asked whether the kung fu sequence of the movie would be hard to handle, Charlene smiles and said: “the most tremendous pressure is the actor is more beautiful than the leading lady.”

I don't know why, but I keeping feeling like I want Hu Ge to play as Liang Shanbo instead. Probably because to me, he suits Liang Shanbo better. And I think Hu Ge and Charlene looks much more compatible than Wu Zun and Charlene. Oh well, I will just wait and give my critics to the movie instead. Its too early to judge right now.

Ugh, I want Hu Ge to be Liang Shanbo so bad. To me, he has a much softer and gentle aura like Liang Shanbo.

Just finished watching the trailers. Wu Zun and Hu Ge look sooooo good! The same can't be said about Charlene though. She just doesn't look so good in ancient-period's clothing. The music in the background is pretty tragic. Sounds like something from a chanting temple. Hopefully this music won't be in the movie. The story was tragic and all, but it was suppose to be happy one until the very ending, right? At least that was what I've got from watching the previous adaptations. Not sure about this one though.
