The Oscar-winning actor Kevin Spacey is to become the biggest Hollywood star ever to appear in a Chinese film production. Spacey has signed on to take a leading role in the black comedy Inseparable as a mysterious American expat who befriends a troubled young Chinese man.
The film will be shot in Mandarin and English. Daniel Wu will play the lead, with Beibi Gong as his wife, an investigative reporter. Dayyan Eng, a Beijing-based US national who shot the Chinese cult hit Waiting Alone, is directing from his own script. Shooting is planned to start later this month in the south of the country.
Spacey will also take an executive producer’s role on Inseparable.
