Having wowed audiences with the visual anarchy of Shaolin Soccer and Kung Fu Hustle, Stephen Chow’s next film, title CJ7, certainly sounds as if it might be a more sedate affair. In it Chow plays a simple laborer who falls in love with his son’s teacher (Kitty Zhang Yuqi), not knowing that she is an alien. And, since its a Stephen Chow movie, we don’t mean alien as in resident of a foreign country. The below pictures from the film, found over at Asian Popcorn, certainly don’t hint at any crazy comedy either. Still, considering the fact that Chow’s son is being played by Xu Jiao, a 9-year-old girl, there is definitely a chance that things will take on Chow’s unique comic sensibilities.
