Hollywood actor Josh Harnett is working with host of A-list Asian stars in his next movie, “I come with the Rain.”

The Asian stars include Japanese hunk Takuya Kimura (pic right), Korean star Lee Byung-hun (pic left) and Hong Kong actor Daniel Wu Shawn Yue.

Josh is starring as a detective that is mentally disturbed after capturing a serial killer. He is assigned to help a Japanese to find his missing son (Takuya Kimura) and encountered various situations in Asia.

Lee Byung-hun is playing a Hong Kong gangster; Daniel Shawn’s role is not revealed, but I am guessing that he is a policeman in Hong Kong helping Harnett in his case.

Josh, Lee and Shawn are currently filming the movie in Hong Kong; Takuya Kimura will be joining them in early September.

Update - it seems that Daniel Wu has to pull out from the filming because of injury; his role is taken by Shawn Yue instead.

Her name is Emma Roberts, 16, niece of famous actress Julia Roberts.

David Duchovny, famous for his Agent Mulder role in popular 1990s series “The X-Files” has said that a second movie adaptation of the movie is in progress and should be released in 2008.

Chris Carter, the producer of The X-Files series, is going to make his directing debut with the movie. Gillian Anderson, who played Agent Scully, is expected to star in the new movie too.

I am a great fan of X-Files (the series), but their first movie adaptation in 1998 was quite disappointing for me. It is nice to see the team working on a movie again, hope that they will produce something memorable this time.
