Dilraba Dilmurat is the actual "Shaolin Women's Soccer" lead?
It was previously reported that the lead actress for the movie, which has been filming in a hush-hush, was Zhang Xiaofei, who is most known for her many collaborations with comedienne Jia Ling.
Many speculated that Zhang was the lead originally due to her jersey number in the movie, which bore the same No. 10 like Stephen had in his own film. On the other hand, Dilraba reportedly has a No. 8 jersey on.
However, it was recently revealed that the "YOLO" actress has already completed all of her parts in the film even before the crew finished shooting. However, Dilraba, who has participated in the shoot since day one, is reported to will only conclude her role in June, sparking speculations that she is the actual star of the movie.
Notably, the production of "Shaolin Women's Soccer" has been extremely low-key and secretive about the shoot. It is said that the film was shot in a large stadium in Shenzhen, Guangdong and a large number of tents, cranes and rest vehicles were set up in the venue.
