    TVB is currently airing reruns of the 7 year old classic drama War and Beauty during the late night hours. Audience are starting to chase the series again with the ratings reaching up to 7 points. Producer Jonathan Chikis preparing to start War and Beauty 2, and anticipates the original cast. However, Gigi Lai has already retired and Bowie Lam left TVB, so the only cast left are Sheren Tang, Charmaine Sheh, Moses Chan and Maggie Cheung. Their schedules still need to be looked at before consideration.

    Producer Chik reveals that the production is still in the preliminary planning stage and the cast list is not confirmed yet. Back then, Ada Choi wasn't able to take part in War and Beauty because of her conflicting schedule, but this time she has hope to be in the sequel. Producer Chik said Ada is a very good actress, and hopes she'll be able to participate. The sequel is temporarily scheduled to start in February 2012, and hopes to shoot in other countries. Charmaine and Sheren both expressed they want to participate in the series and hopes their schedules can accommodate.

    I haven't watched the first one.. but for a 7 year old drama to reach 7 points is hard especially with the quality and such. Might actaully watch the 2nd one. I didn't know Gigi Lai retired! So young to retire.. but i understand
