After giving birth to her second son, Quintus Tse, in May this year, Cecilia Cheung will be making a full comeback to showbiz with five movie projects under her belt. The 30-year-old will also be starring in the upcoming 3D blockbuster The Monkey King, alongside a star-studded cast which includes Chow Yun-fat, Aaron Kwok, Donnie Yen, Kelly Chen, and Gigi Leung.
Cecilia will take on the role of goddess Nu Wa, who Chinese believe is the creator of men. The other two female actresses, Gigi Leung and Kelly Chen will play moon goddess Chang E and the Goddess of Mercy respectively.
Speaking on her role as the Goddess of Mercy in the movie, Kelly said, "I hope to be like the Goddess of Mercy and help those in greater need. I hope to donate my salary from this production and help the children of our society who need it more."
Apart from The Monkey King, Cecilia will be acting in Jingle Ma's Dynamic Angel, Raymond Wong Pak-Ming's All's Well, End's Well 2011, Stephen Chow's Journey to the West, and Frankie Chan's The Lady Generals of Yang Family.
