JEON JI HYUN TO STAR IN A NEW FILM WITH HWANG JIUNG MIN


After wrapping up her Hollywood debut film, hallyu princess Jeon Ji Hyun will star in "Superman Ieotdeon Sanai'' (The Guy Who Was Once Superman) with award-winning actor Hwang Jung Min ("You Are My Sunshine,'' 2005), according to CJ Entertainment.

Also known as Gianna Jeon, the heroine of "My Sassy Girl'' (2001) will play the role of a small production company head who tries, using coercive measures, to document the life of a heartless Superman (Hwang).

"The unique script was very appealing and I am looking forward to working with Hwang Jung-min,'' she was quoted as saying according to CJ Entertainment.

Following her last Korean film "Daisy'' (2006), Jun was in the United States for her role in "Blood: The Last Vampire,'' a post-World War II horror story based on a Japanese comic series and co-produced by Korea. The movie awaits release next year.

"Superman'' traces the adventures of a Don Quixote-like man who tries to help out a neighbor. Directed by Jung Yoon Chul, maker of warm family movies like "Marathon'' (2005), the film is scheduled to go into production this fall for release early next year.
