Sources say that Wong has already began with the pre-production work for the upcoming movie and that he is currently looking for possible filming locations.

Known for starring fresh faces in his films, Wong chose Ho to portray the lead character, saying that he hopes the actor will become the next sexy male god of Hong Kong.

Based on sources, Ho will be playing a role similar to Simon Yam's role, Sam, in 'Gigolo and Whore,' which was filmed back in 1991.

The actress who will be playing the female lead is rising actress Candy Yuen. The actress, who is currently under the management of Peter Chan and Sandra Ng allegedly turned down a role in Ng's supposed New Year film in order to be featured in 'Gigolo King.'

During a phone interview, Yuen shared that Director Wong told her that he has noticed her five years prior to casting her in the new film. The director supposedly praised the 29-year old actress for her looks and sexy body.

The actress, who is turning 30 years old later this month, also commended Wong for his directing skills, saying that she is confident with it. Additionally, Yuen stated that she cannot pass up the opportunity to star in the film as she will be getting lots of screen time.

Furthermore, Yuen revealed that she will be showing more skin than usual for the production of 'Gigolo King.'

On the other hand, Wong refused to reveal further details regarding the intimate scenes that will be shot for the movie, leaving the media with his vague revelation that the film will be 'more interesting than the skin'.

On a side note, 'Gigolo King' will also feature actresses Jaena Ho, Hazel Tong and Fan Ling.
