HONG KONG - HEAVENLY King Jacky Cheung finds himself in two movies this festive season and says he is as stunned as anyone else.
Cheung, who plays a driver in an SMS flirtation with a pianist (Rene Liu) in the star-laden romance Hot Summer Days, is also in the comedy 72 Tenants Of Prosperity.
Speaking from the sidelines of the premiere of Hot Summer Days on Tuesday night, he said: 'I was doing a Chinese New Year movie and a Valentine's Day movie. How was I to know they would be released together?'
It just so happens that this year, Valentine's Day falls on the first day of Chinese New Year.
He said the two films were different and hoped both would do well at the box office.
Hot Summer Days, directed by first-time film-makers Tony Chan and Wing Shya, also stars Nicholas Tse, Barbie Hsu, Daniel Wu and Vivian Hsu.
