Trivia:
The project was set to roll early 2008 in China but the authorities blocked the shoot just weeks before production was set to begin. China’s exit meant walking away from sets that had been built at a cost of $3 million. Weinstein Co. shifted the shoot to London and Thailand, where sets have been built re-creating Shanghai's old colonial architecture. more
