Currently THE VIRAL FACTOR is doing well in the box-office, and a sequel plan is already in talks. But there's a speculating rumor that one of the main stars, Jay Chou, will be dropped from the cast list of THE VIRAL FACTOR sequel.
Apparently he is said to be lacking in martial-arts training and underperformed with lots of NG (no good) takes. Not only that, he made demanding requests on-set and worried a lot about his wig. He also requested the director (Dante Lam) to make him "look good" during the non-action scenes, while insisting on using stunt double for ferocious fighting scenes.
Investors are looking forward to bring in Donnie Yen or Andy Lau to replace Jay Chou in the sequel to boost box-office sales.
Despite all the rumors surrounding Jay Chou's highly-demanding attitude and the sequel plan for THE VIRAL FACTOR, Jay's recording company JVR Music claimed that they have not heard of plans for making a sequel, and added that Jay once said that he will be filming any action movies in the coming future.
