Chen Kun's film "Onmyoji" is finished and will be released in 2020

The movie "Onmyoji", adapted from the popular mobile game and starring Chen Kun, directed by Li Weiran and produced by Chen Guofu, has recently wrapped up and is expected to be released in 2020.

Since its launch in September 2016, Onmyoji has topped the App Store bestseller list and has become the world's highest-grossing mobile game. It has quickly spread to become a cultural phenomenon that is hotly discussed by the public. According to reports, the game is adapted from the novel Onmyoji by the famous Japanese writer Baku Yumemakura. In 2001, Yojiro Takita, who won the Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film for Departures, directed the movie Onmyoji, starring Hiroyuki Sanada, Hideaki Ito and Mansai Nomura. He has also filmed Japanese TV series.

On December 15, 2016, Kung Fu Pictures, with Chen Guofu as the core, announced that it would join hands with Huayi Brothers Pictures and NetEase Pictures to create the Onmyoji movie and TV series. In March 2017, the film also appeared in the new list released by Kung Fu Pictures. Now, two years have passed, and Onmyoji has finally finished filming, which is worth looking forward to.
