Netizens Believe New Version of Daji is Imitating Painted Skin: Similar Makeup and Moves!
2023-06-29
Today, the movie 'The Gods' released a trailer for the 'Human Chaos' version and character stills, unveiling the actress Naran as the new Daji. The on-screen portrayal of Daji exudes beauty, innocence, and a touch of enchantment.
However, some netizens believe that the appearance and choreography of Daji in the trailer for 'The Gods' bear a strong resemblance to Xiaowei from the classic film 'Painted Skin 2': 'Is this makeup and dance routine not imitating Xiaowei from Painted Skin?' 'It gives off a visual vibe of a low-budget version of Xiaowei from Painted Skin, but lacks her enchantment and agility.'
Others pointed out that it is understandable for the visual style to be similar between 'The Gods' and 'Painted Skin 2' since both films were directed by Wuershan. It is worth noting that 'Painted Skin 2' is an oriental fantasy romance film directed by Wuershan and starring Zhou Xun and Chen Kun, among others. The film, released on June 28, 2012, in Mainland China, tells the story of the fox spirit Xiaowei, General Huo Xin, and Princess Jing and their intertwined fates.
'The Gods: Part One' has a runtime of 148 minutes and is directed by Wuershan. The cast includes Fei Xiang, Li Xuejian, Huang Bo, Yu Shi, Chen Muchi, Naran, Cisha, Wu Yafan, Xia Yu, Yuan Quan, Wang Luoyong, Hou Wenyuan, Huang Xiyi, Li Yunrui, Yang Le, and Chen Kun. The movie is set to be released nationwide on July 20th.
