Doug Belgrad and Matt Tolmach, presidents of Columbia Pictures have announced that the role of Kato has been cast for the upcoming Michel Gondry directed THE GREEN HORNET. Jay Chou will play the role opposite Seth Green in the movie, which will be released on July 9, 2010.
Gondry said, "Jay is incredibly unique and charming and fights like a wild dog! When I filmed him next to Seth, they had such great chemistry, and I knew the movie will be great."
Chou added, "It's an overwhelming experience to take on a role made famous by Bruce Lee. I won't try to be Bruce Lee's Kato - I will try to bring my own interpretation to the part. Of course, it's a dream role, and I'm looking forward to the challenge."
