My Lucky Star is a 2013 Chinese romantic adventure film directed by Dennie Gordon and starring Zhang Ziyi and Leehom Wang. The film serves as a prequel to the 2009 film Sophie's Revenge, with Zhang, Ruby Lin and Yao Chen reprising their roles.

Production

The 2009 comedy Sophie's Revenge was a success in China, earning RMB97 million. It marked a change of pace for Zhang, who gained fame for her work in serious dramas and action movies like her award-winning performance in Wong Kar-wai's The Grandmaster and Ang Lee's Oscar-winning Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon. Initially producer Ming Beaver Kwei brought the project to Village Roadshow Pictures as a direct follow-up to Sophie's Revenge.

The Chinese trailers for My Lucky Star also tout the connection with the "Sophie Is Back" tagline and even the Mandarin titles are similar—Fei chang wan mei or "Extraordinary Perfection" and "Fei chang xinyun" ("Extraordinary Luck"). My Lucky Star is also notable for being the first Chinese-language movie to be directed by an American woman, Dennie Gordon.

Gordon recalled to The Los Angeles Times how she initially got involved with the production:

"I was trying to do a remake of What a Girl Wants and there was a company in China that was interested. There was a guy there who was very keen on doing it, Song Ge, and he would just show up wherever I was shooting something. He was sort of tracking me and we just built this relationship. He had produced Sophie’s Revenge with Ziyi -- we call her Z -- and he wanted to do another project with her. And so he put us together.

Chow wrote the first draft of the script in China, while stateside, the story was developed by Gordon, with American screenwriter Snow and producer Kwei. Chinese writers Huang and Meng also contributed to the script. After several translated drafts and much cross-cultural collaboration, the team was able to strike the right balance of humor and cultural relevance for Chinese audiences.
