Rain's new year starts by the casting in a new Hollywood film!"
A good head start for the actor-and-singer Rain (25) in year 2008! He had chosed to participate in a Hollywood film which is produced by one of the most famous film producers in USA.
After completing his CF shooting in Korea, Rain departed to L.A. and in the middle of preparation for his upcoming Hollywood film. Since November 2007, he was so determined to improve his English language by staying with a personal lecturer who is a American Korean.
His agency, J Tune Entertainment publicist revealed, "Rain is now in L.A. and getting ready for his next Hollywood film. A local Korean who stays there is hired to be his personal lecturer. There're still some details to sort out so it's not the right time yet to talk more about this issue (new film)."
On the other hand, Rain greeted his fans by releasing a short video clip at his official site. "I'm grateful to have everyone's love and support in year 2007, so hope that you can continue to encourage me in year 2008."

Rain's next movie a Ninja movie? [unconfirmed / unbestätigt]
Es wird für einen neuen Film ein Koreanischer Junge gesucht zwischen 12 und 15 Jahren, der Rain ähnlich sehen soll. Er soll sportlich und fit sein, da er einen jungen Ninja-Schüler namens Jubei darstellen soll. Der erwachsene Jubei soll dann später von Rain verkörpert werden. Das Casting für den Jungen soll im April 2008 in Berlin sein. ...
==> hm etwas merkwürdig ... warum suchen die einen jungen Koreaner ausgerechnet in Berlin und nicht in Korea??? Und die Webseite des Artikels heißt "Networking Entertaining Asian American Talent Org." - also Asien und Amerika da macht Berlin noch viel weniger Sinn? Sorry aber das glaube ich erst wenn ich es von offizieller Seite höre oder lese ...
Hier der Original Artikel:
| Quote: | Casting For Korean Boy 12-15
January 26, 2008
Latest Updates from Mike2Cents
My casting director Susan Shopmaker asked me to send this out. It sounds like she’s working on a very cool project. It stars Rain (비) and they are looking for someone to play the young version of him.
PS I have nothing to do with this project so don’t post questions about it because I don’t know the answers.
For immediate release:
“Untitled James McTeigue”
Director: James McTeigue
CAST: Rain as Jubie
Shoots starting APRIL in Berlin
Looking for:
Young Jubie – Korean boy - 9-15 years old to portray the young ‘Rain’. Jubie is a Ninja-in-training so the boy must be ‘fit’.
Please contact susan@susanshopmakercasting.com

Info:
Director James McTeigue was an assistant director on 2 of the "Matrix" movies, one of the "Star War" movies and director for "V for Vendetta" working with the Wachowski Brothers who wrote and directed "Speed Racer". It's interesting that Natalie Portman star of "Vendetta" wanted to talk to Rain while he was at the Berlin Festival, but they were unable at that time to manage their schedules. This was before he was cast in "Speed".

| Quote: | Rain had a press conference in Seoul accompany by WMA vice president
His new movie...
WMA vice president, John Mass, called new movie title 'Ninja Assasin' but we already know it is from Anime - Ninja Scroll.
It will be Joel Silver and Wachowski brothers film. I wonder how they will make this anime to movie.
Because of this movie, he is working very hard to loose weight and build his body.
Also, Studying English hard (he said he doesn't have problem communicating in English.).
Ah, also He will be main character in this movie and NO, he is not Japanese in this movie. (on that casting post a couple weeks ago, they were looking for Korean youngsters to play younger Rain, specifically looking for Korean due to accent and stuff.)

| Quote: | Rain grabs leading role in Hollywood film (2008/02/14)
Rain, Korea's foremost entertainer recently dubbed one of the world's most beautiful people, has clinched a leading role in a Hollywood flick scheduled to begin shooting later this year, his U.S. promotion agency was quoted as saying by Yonhap News Agency.
"Ninja Assassin", to be directed by James McTeigue, will mark the first time for the 26-old singer and actor, whose real name is Jeong Ji-hoon, to play a leading role in a U.S. movie. He will make his official Hollywood debut in May with a smaller role in "Speed Racer".
"This is such a huge opportunity for me. It seems like a dream", he said at a press conference in Seoul.
Rain emerged as a worldwide star when Korea's pop culture, especially its pop music and television dramas, became hugely popular several years ago in Asia and other regions.
Riding on the "Korean Wave", known in Korea as "Hallyu", Rain was named one of the "100 Most Influential People" by Time Magazine in 2006 and one of the "100 Most Beautiful People" a year later by People Magazine.
Rain recently concluded a contract with the William Morris Agency (WMA), a New York-based talent agency that represents entertainers such as Britney Spears, Jennifer Lopez and Russell Crowe.
"We're a business with a number of artists who are really international artists, and we look at Rain as the same", said John Mass, a WMA vice chief. "He's not just popular in Korea or Asia, but he's popular throughout the world".
Rain began his singing career after releasing his first solo album, " Bad Guy ", in 2002, a huge success that was followed by other popular albums. He launched his acting career when he starred in the South Korean television drama "Full House" in 2004 and the movie "I'm a Cyborg, But That's OK" in 2006.

Didn’t recognize our favorite ESL student? Well, neither did we. Superstar, Rain, prematurely dons on ninja wear as a nod to his new leading role in the Wachowski brother’s Ninja Assassin. The film doesn’t start shooting until March 2008 in Berlin, but already the singer is in costume.

Asian Superstar "Rain" will play the main character in "Ninja Assassin", the newest Movie from the Wachowski-Brothers.
Jung Ji-Hoon, better known as Rain, is a Superstar in Asia.
The 1982 born Singer led the charts in his home south korea, in china, japan and thailand or singapur.
The Time Magazine selected him as the most Influential Artist of the Year
after the "Broke Back Montain"-Director Ang Lee.
After first Appearances on TV-series in Korea Rain collected some Film Experience:
Barely he was seen in the crazy Comedy "I'm a Cyborg but thats OK" in German Cinemas.
Next the Star will be shown in the cinemas in his role in "Speed Racer".
The Brothers Wachowski was filming the japanese racer-comic in autumn in the Berliner Babelsberger Studios.
While this, Rain apparently satisfied so much that they engaged the Star for their next
Project "Ninja Assassin".
"The direction in this Project will be the "V for Vendetta"-Director James McTeigue,
Joel Siler and Andy Wachowski will also act as producers.
At The Moment Rain is working on a Cover Version of "Kung Fu Fighting".

| Quote: | Wachowski-Brüder entwickeln "Ninja Assassin"
Die Brüder Andy und Larry Wachowski ("Matrix"-Filme), deren "Speed Racer" am 8. Mai in die deutschen Kinos kommt, produzieren den Warner-Bros.-Film "Ninja Assassin", für den sie auch das Drehbuch geschrieben haben. Die Hauptrolle soll der südkoreanische Popstar Rain ("I'm a Cyborg, but That's OK") übernehmen, der in "Speed Racer" eine Nebenrolle hat. Als Regisseur wird wahrscheinlich James McTeigue an Bord kommen, der bereits "V wie Vendetta" nach dem Drehbuch der Wachowski-Brüder inszenierte. Die Dreharbeiten zu "Ninja Assassin" sollen in Berlin stattfinden, und zwar von März bis Juli. Schon "Speed Racer" wurde im Potsdamer Studio Babelsberg gedreht.

| Quote: | Der Neue aus Hollywood heißt „Ninja Assassin“ - 18. Feb 2008
Im März soll im Studio Babelsberg Drehstart für den neuen Warner Bros.-Film sein – erwartet werden erneut die Wachowski-Brüder
------------
Babelsberg - Studio Babelsberg steht weiter hoch im Kurs in Hollywood: Bereits Anfang März sollen nach PNN-Informationen in den Potsdamer Filmhallen die Dreharbeiten für den Actionfilm „Ninja Assassin“ beginnen. Damit finden sich die Brüder Andy und Larry Wachowski – berühmt geworden durch ihre weltweit erfolgreiche „Matrix“-Trilogie – und Produzent Joel Silver nach nur siebenmonatiger Pause wieder in Babelsberg ein.
Im Jahr 2007 führten die Wachowskis von Juni bis Ende August im Potsdamer Studio Regie bei der Comic-Verfilmung „Speed Racer“. Mit dabei war neben Stars wie Susan Sarandon und John Goodman auch der südkoreanische Popstar Jung Ji-hoon, genannt Rain. Er soll nun die Hauptrolle in „Ninja Assassin“ übernehmen. Auch der Regisseur des Actionstreifens arbeitete bereits in Babelsberg: James Mc Teigue drehte Anfang 2005 „V for Vendetta“ mit Natalie Portman in Potsdam – Produzenten waren auch bei diesem Hollywood-Projekt die Wachowskis und Silver. Studio Babelsberg wollte das Wiedersehen mit den „alten Bekannten“ auf Anfrage nicht kommentieren. Zahlreiche Branchendienste meldeten aber bereits die Verpflichtung des Popstars Rain sowie den geplanten Dreh in Babelsberg.
Wenig ist dagegen bisher über den Inhalt von „Ninja Assassin“ bekannt. Das Buch sollen Andy und Larry Wachowski selbst geschrieben haben. Darin soll es um Schattenkrieger gehen, die in Geheimbünden trainieren und gefährliche Attentate ausführten. Der Film soll Ende 2009 in den Kinos anlaufen.
Zuvor startet im Mai 2008 aber zunächst „Speed Racer“ auf den Leinwänden. Der Film soll angeblich zum Filmfestival im französischen Cannes, das vom 14. bis zum 25. Mai stattfindet, präsentiert werden. Der Familien-Actionfilm um einen jungen Rennfahrer hatte Babelsberg volle Hallen und gute Umsätze beschert. Nach damaligen Angaben des Studio-Vorstands Carl L. Woebcken gaben die US-amerikanischen Produzenten bis zu 40 Millionen Euro in Babelsberg und der Region aus. Zwölf der 21 Hallen waren für den Film vermietet und 500 feste und freie Mitarbeiter daran beteiligt. Mit einer Tochterfirma ist das Studio zudem Koproduzent. Aus dem Deutschen Filmförderfonds (DFFF) erhielt „Speed Racer“ neun Millionen Euro. Ob auch die neue Produktion über das Steuermodell gefördert wird, ist nicht bekannt; ebenso gibt es bisher keine Angaben zum Budget.
Maßgeblich für den neuen Auftrag könnte aber die technische Infrastruktur in Babelsberg sein: Für „Speed Racer“ hatten die Studio-Chefs die Filmhallen mit „Visual Effects“-Ecken ausstatten lassen. Dort konnten die computeranimierten Szenen sofort mit den real gedrehten zusammengefügt werden – bei „High Tech“-Filmen ein Muss. Verantwortlich für die so genannten „Visual Effects“ bei „Speed Racer“ war Oscar-Preisträger John Gaeta.
Für den südkoreanischen Popstar Rain ist „Ninja Assassin“ bereits der dritte Film. Im vergangenen Jahr präsentierte er auf der Berlinale die schräge Komödie „I’m a Cyborg, but that’s ok“.
