Zhang Ziyi in Lost for Words

Zhang Ziyi and Hugh Grant will star in "Lost for Words," a romantic comedy. In the film, Hugh Grant will play a British movie star approached by Chinese director Zhang Ziyi to be in her film. Grant falls for the charms of the Zhang's flirtatious translator, but soon sees the object of his true affection is the Zhang. Unfortunately, the translator is the only person who can communicate his feelings, and she has her own motives. The film is scheduled to start shooting in September in London and possibly China. This is definitely an interesting pairing for a movie. We think Zhang ZiYi can pull this off. Before filming begins, Zhang Ziyi is still helping with China Quake victims.
