Directors Replaced in Big Budget Vampire Pic 'Painted Skin' - Shooting has got underway on Painted Skin, a big-budget thriller starring Donnie Yen and Zhou Xun (The Banquet). The pic is something of a rarity in China, a supernatural thriller, albeit one that is a remake of a 1965 Hong Kong movie of the same title. The story involves a vampire-like woman who eats the skins and hearts of her lovers. "Skin" was unveiled in June, but since then budget has climbed from $10 million to $15 million and Gordon Chan has replaced co-helmers Wilson Yip Wai-shun and Andy Chin Wing-keung in the director's chair. Tung Wai takes the action choreography role. Other cast include Chen Kun, Zhao Wei, Sun Li and Singapore's Qi Yu Wu. Lensing will continue till February and release is skedded for Christmas 2008.
