Actress Park Si Yeon, who has risen to prominence for the drama ‘The Innocent Man,’ will take on some more noble men by appearing in her first Hollywood film.

According to her agency Story Entertainment on November 19th, Park Si Yeon will be making her Hollywood debut through the film ‘The Last Knights’ starring Clive Owen, Morgan Freeman and Benedict Cumberbatch. The film will be about a group of knights fighting against a corrupt emperor to avenge the loss of their master.

Park Si Yeon will play a deprived woman named Hannah who arouses compassion from people being a wife of corrupted man of power Geja Mot (played by Cumberbatch). Fellow Korean actor Ahn Sung Ki will take a role of Hannah’s father.

Production will start early December in the Czech Republic, slated for release in the latter half of 2013.


Actors Ahn Sung Ki and Lee Byung Hun let the world know about Korean movies as they left hand prints in Hollywood. The two attended the hand-printing event in LA, USA at the Grauman’s Chinese Theater in Hollywood.

About 300 or so fans gathered to see this and the two actors left their hand and foot prints with their names in Korean and English.

This day was the opening of the Look East Festival: Year One Korea 2012 which showed interest in Korean movies as well as the two actors. About 200 celebrities and stars have had their hand and foot prints printed here including Charlie Chaplin, Marylyn Monroe, John Wayne, Steven Spielberg and others.

Meanwhile, Lee Byung Hun’s new film, “G.I. Joe: Retaliation,” will be released soon. The sequel to a 2009 blockbuster “G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra” features Bruce Willis and Dwayne Johnson.

Actors Lee Byung Hun and Ahn Sungki will leave their hand prints at the “Walk of Fame” on the forecourt of Mann’s Chinese Theatre on June 23 during their participation in a Korean film festival held in Hollywood, California.

Until now, Hong Kong director John Woo is the only Asian celebrity to have left his prints there, making the two Koreans the first actors from the region to do so.

Opened in 1927, the theater used to host the Academy Awards. It remains a famous sightseeing spot, with the streets outside featuring the hand and foot prints of some 250 stars and directors including Charlie Chaplin, Marilyn Monroe and Harrison Ford.

The host of the festival, Look East, said that Lee was selected as the first Asian actor to leave his prints there because he has emerged as a rising star in Hollywood due to his role in the “G.I. Joe” series. Veteran actor Ahn Sungki was recommended by the Korean Film Producers Association.

Look East, founded by Korean-American film producer Martha Chang, said it decided to inaugurate the film festival this year to promote Asian culture and films. Star directors like Quentin Tarantino and Oliver Stone will attend, it added.

As her former colleague and producer Elli Samaha purchased Mann’s Chinese Theater in June last year, Chang reserved the right to take care of Asian actors’ hand printing events there for five years from 2012, and selected Ahn and Lee as the first invitees.
