Call Quote by Tony Leung Chiu-Wai

“Once I'm committed to a role, I will go very deep into it, even when I'm not at work. I'll keep on studying the script, maybe 40 or 50 times. I might call a scriptwriter at three in the morning to say I've thought of something new.” quote by Tony Leung Chiu-Wai — Download Open image
