RESIDENT EVIL: RETRIBUTION's Li Bingbing Joins The Cast Of TRANSFORMERS 4
Just like Iron Man 3, Michael Bay's Tranformers 4 will be a Chinese Co-Production. Resident Evil: Retribution actress Li Bingbing (who played 'Ada Wong' in that franchise) is now the latest addition to the cast as a part of that agreement. Read on for details!
According to The Hollywood Reporter, Li Bingbing has joined the cast of Transformers 4 in what promises to be the first of many announcements in regards to Chinese stars being featured in the movie. The actress - perhaps best known to Western audiences for her role in Resident Evil: Retribution - will be joined by other well-known actors from the country as well as newcomers from a reality TV show competition. This is all part of Paramount's deal to co-produce the movie with China as it means they will ultimately take home far more money from the location which is now the second biggest box office in the world. In 2010, Transformers: Dark of the Moon earned $177.3 million in China and is still their second highest grossing foreign film of all-time. The fourth instalment is set to begin shooting this summer and is set for release on June 27th, 2014.
