Cr. - 10asia
Lee Byung-hun is considering appearing in a historical film, according to his agency BH Entertainment on Friday.
"He's looking into the movie after being offered a role in it although nothing has been decided as of yet," an official at BH said of the pic tentatively named "I am the King of Joseon."
"Joseon," taking its motif from children's tale "The Prince and the Pauper," will tell of a man of low class of birth who pretends to be King Gwanghaegun, the 15th ruler of Korea's Joseon Dynasty.
"Joseon" was originally set to be famed director Kang Woo-suk's first historical pic but left the project over differences of opinion with production firm CJ E&M and was replaced by Chu Chang-min of "Mapado" (2005) and "Late Blossom" (2010).
Lee, one of Korea's most well-recognized actors and a household name in Japan as well, is currently filming the sequel to "G.I. Joe: The Rise of the Cobra" in the United States.
