"My Wife Is a Gangster" to get Chinese remake
LEE Soon-yeol, original producer of the 2001 smash hit, and ZENG Hui, head of the Chinese Yunyunnan Culture Investment Co., inked the deal last month during a KOFIC-hosted conference.
The remake film will have a budget of roughly CNY40m (US$6.2), all coming from China. The cast and crew will be from both China and Korea, with post-production to be done in Korea.

CJ announces US$100m Korean War film "1950"
CJ E&M Pictures and Grapevine Entertainment have announced the Korean film industry's most expensive project to date, a Korean War film budgeted at US$100m. Titled "1950", American filmmaker Rob COHEN ("The Fast and the Furious") will direct.

Lee's 40 Acres & A Mule will produce the film with Vertigo Entertainment, which also worked on English-language remakes of the Hong Kong film "Infernal Affairs" (which became "The Departed") and the Japanese film "The Grudge".
