K-Pop Icon Psy To Appear In Chinese Film ‘From Vegas To Macau III’
South Korean rapper Psy appears in a new Chinese movie, filmed in Hong Kong, called "From Vegas to Macau III" as a surprise guest. As the Korea Joongang Daily reported Thursday the most-seen star on YouTube appeared in the trailer of the movie released by the production team.
Hong Kong actor Chow Yun Fat and singer-actor Andy Lau shared the screen for the comedy-action film which is slated to hit the theaters on February 8, 2016.
In the movie trailer, Psy appears wearing a white tuxedo.
"I heard a lot about you," he tells Chow Yun Fat. "Let's do it."
Although his role has not been revealed, AJU Business Daily reported Dec. 15 that Psy might play the role of a gambler who is the adversary Chow's character.
Further reports have revealed that the South Korean singer and Chow Yun Fat are known to be good comrades. The actor was seen dancing along with Psy while he performs "Gangnam Style" during the 2015 MNet Asian Music Awards held in Hong Kong last December 2.

A year later, he released another single "Hangover" which features American rapper Snoop Dogg.
Meanwhile, "From Vegas to Macau III" is the third and last installment of "From Vegas to Macau" franchise.
