"Jade Axis" is a historical drama adapted from the novel of the same name by author Doan Tu Lai, revolving around Phan Truong Ngoc - a girl who agrees to marry Vu An Marquis Ta Chinh - the person she saved from a time of trouble to save her parents and family assets.
However, her parents were still murdered. To investigate their deaths, Truong Ngoc joined the army and fought alongside Ta Chinh. Eventually, she became a talented female general, while Ta Chinh gradually grew up and became a pillar of the country.
After some consideration, on the afternoon of October 2, Truong Lang Hac's representative confirmed that the actor would participate in the project. However, the position (the order in which the actor's name appears in the film's promotional activities) is still under discussion.
The actor also hopes that fans will limit the spread of negative reactions to maintain friendly relations between all parties, creating a healthy and positive "fandom" environment.
However, right below the post, Truong Lang Hac's fans continued to strongly object. The majority said: "If it's not the first season, don't accept it", or "If the season hasn't been considered, the contract hasn't been signed yet, you can still refuse"...
Previously, as soon as there were rumors that Truong Lang Hac was considering acting in "Truc Ngoc", his fans unanimously protested because the project had too many "unstable" elements.
These include the original work being poorly written, the character development being outdated, the male lead being stupid and weak, the director specializing in short films, the screenwriter having written two "flop" films, and the production company having no experience making period films.
The media said that the film's controversy before filming began would have a significant impact on the work. On the other hand, before "Jade Axis", Truong Lang Hac worked hard on films but all failed.
For example, in 4 years (from 2020-2024), Truong Lang Hac has filmed 15 films. Among them are "The Great Girl", "Moment of Vibration", "He is Perfect", "Me and My Youth", "Hundred Refining to Become Steel", "Thuong Lan Quyet", "Van Chi Vu", "He Steps Out of the Fire", "Hoc Hac Yeu Su Luc", "Ning An Nhu Mong", "Hou Yeu Tieu Hong Nuong", "Do Hoa Nien", "Tu Hai Trong Minh".
In addition, the movie "Cat Tinh Cao Chieu" is currently shelved, while the movie "Love You" has finished filming and the movie "Anh Cherry Amber" is in the process of filming.
The media believes that Truong Lang Hac is lucky to have abundant film resources, however, what has caused his career to stagnate is due to unattractive scripts, limited acting, and continuously accepting new films while the character image does not have much difference.
This is also the reason why, despite causing a stir with his handsome appearance every time he promotes a movie, or having many intimate interactions with co-stars when participating in TV shows, Truong Lang Hac's projects still cannot break through.
Fans are worried that the actor will gradually lose his appeal among his contemporaries if his upcoming works do not make a breakthrough.
As for Dien Hi Vi, she currently has the movie "Ban thuc nam nu" on air. Not only did she record low achievements, the actress's role as Ha Tri Nam also received many criticisms for her dramatic acting, fast dialogue, and hard to understand.
Accordingly, "Jade Axis" will start filming in November. The film is expected to be filmed for 130 days and will air on two platforms, Iqiyi and Tencent.
