Liu Xiao Ling Tong plays Sun Wukong again! According to Sina Film, Liu Xiao Ling Tong will join Han Yan, the director of Animal World and Go Away Tumor, as a "motion capture actor" in his new film, The Monkey King: Journey to the West (formerly known as Where is the Way?).

Ma Dehua, who played "Zhu Bajie" in the 1986 version of "Journey to the West", will also join as a motion capture actor. In addition, according to the poster, the movie will also feature characters such as the little monk, the cypress fairy, the bamboo fairy, the host, the pine fairy, the apricot fairy, the giant spirit, and the little demon Jingzhe.

Liu Xiao Ling Tong said on his personal Weibo: "After several years of careful preparation, we have just completed the ever-changing cutting-edge film technology such as detailed facial scanning. Thanks to Ruyi Films, Director Han Yan and the team. Liu Xiao Ling Tong will once again play the Monkey King on the screen. Please look forward to it and pay attention."

Director Han said that the film has been in preparation for more than a year and is about to start shooting. Having grown up with "Journey to the West", his earliest understanding of heroes came from the invincible Monkey King. "So filming "The True and False Monkey King" is a new journey for me, but also a sacred journey."

The production companies of "Journey to the West: The True and False Monkey King" are Ruyi Films and Pitaya Films, and the producer is Chen Zhixi, Han Yan's partner in "Animal World". It will tell the story of Sun Wukong accompanying Tang Monk to the West to obtain Buddhist scriptures, and fighting demons and monsters along the way to protect him. But the appearance of the six-eared macaque awakens his inner demons that have been sealed for a hundred years. Will he let go of his evil thoughts and travel west to become a Buddha, or will he be forced to become a demon by the six-eared macaque? Everyone is waiting for the moment when the Monkey King returns...
