2003 TVB anniversary series Triumph in the Skies was a highly acclaimed series. TVB had always wanted to shoot a sequel, but couldn't bring back 'Sam Gor' Francis Ng. This year at the TVB Anniversary Awards, Francis was the guest award presenter for the Best Actress award. When Myolie Wu took the award, she tearfully urged her senior to accept Triumph in the Skies II and hoped her sincerity will touch Francis. The fresh out of the oven TV Queen, Myolie Wu, strongly tried to persuade Francis to shoot the sequel and even expressed her request to the executives. Once the TV Queen opens her mouth, big boss Chan Kwok Keung personally called Francis and invited him back.
To show their sincerity, TVB offered Francis HK$80,000 per episode to come back to his maternal home and be the handsome pilot Sam Gor again.
On Wednesday (12/28th), Myolie did not hesitate to tell [Sudden Weekly]: "Although my salary for shooting series is fixed, if Francis agrees to be in TITS2, I really don't mind if my salary gets reduced because the whole cast and crew wants him back. With Francis and Chilam Cheung here, it is the best!"
Regarding Francis's return for HK$80,000 per episode, Virgina Lok admitted Francis is already part of the confirmed cast: "The sequel will start shooting in May. We are currently marking Francis' schedule, but there are still many things that are unconfirmed. We don't even know who the producer is yet. (Myolie and TVB big boss came out to persuade Francis to come back?) I'm not telling!"
TVB plans to make TITS2 the anniversary series of 2012, with two handsome lead actors, will Myolie have a higher chance to become TV Queen for the second time?
Current development
- Myolie's role turns disable and she'll be shooting in a wheel chair. Raymond Lam replaces Francis as her new boyfriend. To Myolie, her role is already considered refreshing.
