Soi Cheang is also supposed to shoot his 2nd feature w/ Milkyway titled 'Motorway' after filming of The Monkey King wraps. I hope we can see Life Without Principle release by the end of the year though damn, that’s too bad about Life Without Principle, To said last month it was about to wrap. that movie has been in the works now for around 3 years. luckily there is a Law Wing-Cheong directed crime film ‘Punished’ which should be finished by now and coming soon, Media Asia even has a poster now on their site but no release info.
