OMG I am so happy you posted this cos I had a pic I wanted to add too!



It's cool that Wallace Huo will be in it If you find more pics, please post them!

[lss]

Here's a collection of the costumes released today (including RYY, which was released yesterday or the day before):

Wow thanks so much for sharing! I'm loving Wallace's outfit and look! That costume and hairstyle really fits him. Reminds me of SHYZM.

I found 2 more pics

I'm still waiting for them to release the stills for DFBB, YiLin, Yang Liang Ting (if it is true that Wallace will also be playing this role - but it's just a rumor so far and YZ seems to have denied it).

But IF it's true that Wallace will be playing YLT, then I would love to see how he and Joe Chen would interact onscreen (and BTS won't hurt either )

Does anyone know when Swordsman will be available with English subs online? ^_^ Laughing in the Wind has always been my favorite wuxia series...and I love Wallace! Can't wait for it!

[sapphiresky]

I think we should wait for it to release before hoping for English subs. I guess it also depends on how good the adaptation is, whether subbing groups would pick it up.

I finally got around to watching Laughing in the wind (2001?, 2002? not sure ..) earlier this year and i loved it so it was a welcome surprise when i heard about a new version for 2012 ... 

I'm not a big fan of wallace huo, although i do feel that his work has evolved quite nicely, so he probably wouldn't have been my 1st casting choice but i have high hopes

why why :I  there is no HuGe there~ 
I think this would be great  especially when HuGe is in it 
I hope I have time to watch it..   huyu~ no HuGe~ 
wallace huo is handsome there~

thx

This remake looks promising and the pictures are stunning. Have to say my favorite was State of Divinity 1996 with Jacky Lui, my second would be the old 1984 with Chu Yun Fat.  Can't wait to see how this compares.

would be better than the previous series or not....
