A | (ECNS) -- Chinese game developer Game Science released a 15-minute gameplay video for Black Myth: Zhong Kui on Thursday, the second anniversary of the launch of its global hit Black Myth: Wukong, offering the first look at the new protagonist combat style and snippets of the storyline. The second title in the Black Myth series draws on ancient Chinese mythology and folk legends surrounding Zhong Kui, a figure traditionally associated with subduing ghosts and demons. His depiction riding a tigerin the game was inspired by a Ming Dynasty (1368-1644) painting of Zhong Kui riding a tiger. The project was announced last August and remains in an early stage of development. Game Science said it chose to explore a new hero, gameplay, visuals, technology and story rather than rush to produce another Wukong title. The shift to Zhong Kui takes the series beyond the Monkey King, one of the best-known figures in Chinese mythology. Black Myth: Wukong, based on the Chinese classic Journey to the West, was released on Aug. 20, 2024, with nearly half of its sales coming from overseas markets (By Intern Yang Hongran, Zhang Dongfang) 。 The runway is set, the stakes are higher, and the most iconic pairing in fashion cinema is back. The Devil Wears Prada 2 marks the much-awaited reunion of Anne Hathaway and Emily Blunt, nearly 20 years after The Devil Wears Prada first took the world by storm. Their dynamic became the heartbeat of the original film, and now, audiences can expect that same irresistible chemistry to return, only bigger, bolder, and more evolved. On being asked to name her favourite co-star in a recent interview, Anne shared, "Emily Blunt. Absolutely, every time. She will make your job so easy, and everyday will be a complete delight." About Devil Wears Prada 2 The Devil Wears Prada is set to return with a sequel, nearly two decades after its release. At the centre once again is formidable Miranda Priestly (Meryl Streep), the Editor-in-Chief of Runway, known for her razor-sharp wit and composure. While the first film followed Andy (Hathaway) as a newcomer finding her footing at a high-fashion magazine, the sequel sees her return to Runway in a very different role, as Miranda navigates the challenges of a rapidly evolving media landscape. The story also brings back Emily (Blunt), Miranda’s former assistant, who is now a powerful executive at a luxury brand, one that holds the financial backing Runway may need to survive. Cast Returning to reprise their roles are Anne Hathaway, Emily Blunt and Stanley Tucci, alongside Meryl Streep. Besides them, the sequel also introduces some new faces such as Simone Ashley, Justin Theroux, Lucy Liu and Kenneth Branagh, among others. Release Date Based on Lauren Weisberger’s novel, The Devil Wears Prada was a box-office hit and earned two Oscar nominations. The Devil Wears Prada 2 arrives in theatres on May 1.
