iQIYI announces the animation of classic comedy "The God of Cookery" Stephen Chow humorously posts invitation letter

Online video site iQiyi recently released a list of future films for 2024, among which it was revealed that it will adapt Stephen Chow's classic comedy "The God of Cookery" into an animated version.

It is understood that the animated version of "The God of Cookery" will be directed by Wan Riliang, a Hong Kong cartoonist who created works such as "If I Were the Emperor", "Martial God", and "Sea Tiger". The introduction mentioned: Stephen Chow, the god of cookery who created the immortal product "Sad and Sad Rice", has retired for many years, but trouble has come. Weizhilian Group is plotting to unify the food industry. Watch the god of cookery who has lost his sense of taste and cook the "Taste of Death"!

It seems that the plot of "The God of Cookery" animation will be a sequel to the 1996 version of "The God of Cookery" movie, but the specific information and release time have not yet been announced by iQiyi officials.

It is worth mentioning that Stephen Chow himself posted a short video on Instagram of himself receiving the invitation letter from iQiyi World Conference, and wrote that he shrank back (upper body) out of fright, and also added clips of his previous movie scenes in the short video, which is quite in the style of his works.
