Jay Chou goes to Hollywood

Taiwanese pop star Jay Chou is going to make his Hollywood debut in "The Green Hornet."

He has been cast as Kato, the main character's sidekick, who was previously played by Bruce Lee in the original drama in the 60s.

Hong Kong actor Stephen Chow was previously cast but he was pulled out of the production. Kwon Sang-woo was also rumored to have been chosen, but Chou got it in the end.

Another Bruce Lee role being filled. I hope he and Rain will do a good job.

The Green Hornet is scheduled for a release next summer so the filming should be starting pretty soon.
