Michelle Ang (aka The Tribe’s Tai-San) will be taking on the lead role in Roseanne Liang’s first feature film, titled Girl Meets Boy (it’s the working title so the name may change!).
Girl Meets Boy is “the contemporary story of Chinese New Zealand-born over-achiever Emily Chu, raised to believe she can get anything she puts her mind to. Even if ‘anything’ is at odds with her traditional Hong Kong born parents’ wish for her to become a doctor like her two older sisters. Everything is coming up roses – until she meets James, a European New Zealander, and accidentally falls in love with him. But if her father finds out, she will face disownment”.
Definitely sounds interesting! The press release (dated February) from South Pacific Pictures is below. The film is due to be released in 2011. Michelle Ang has previously worked with Roseanne Liang on the short film Take 3. Michelle is also appearing in the ‘directed by Jodie Foster’ movie The Beaver, it stars Mel Gibson and will be released this year.
