Thailand is confirmed to remake Taiwanese hit Marry My Dead Body. The mystery comedy will be titled The Red Envelope and will star Billkin and PP Krit. The news regarding the joining of the two famous actors was conveyed directly by their agencies.
The agency together with GHD 559 also uploaded a poster of the film which shows Billkin wearing a wedding dress holding a photo of PP Krit which indicates that the character has died. Billkin is expected to play the police character played by Greg Hsu in the Taiwanese version.
While PP Krit is cast as the character played by Austin Lin. "The Red Envelope is a remake of Taiwan's Marry My Dead Body which was successful in various countries," wrote the agency and the film's production house in a statement.
"This time, the story will be remade in a fun and different way according to the style of producer Banjong Pisanthanakun with director Moo Chayanop Boonprakob who worked together on Friend Zone." Previously, Billkin and PP Krit starred in My Ambulance (2019), I Told Sunset About You (2020), and its sequel I Promised You the Moon (2021).
PP Krit also starred in the film Rerun with Nine Naphat and Jeff Satur in 2023. Meanwhile, Billkin recently set a phenomenal record through the film he starred in, How to Make Millions Before Grandma Dies. The Red Envelope is scheduled to air in 2025.
However, there is no information yet whether the film will be aired in Indonesia or not. Marry My Dead Body tells the story of the life of Wu Ming-han (Greg Hsu), a police officer who is very ambitious in solving various cases. However, the results are always the opposite of what he wants.
While investigating a case with his partner, Gingle Wang (Lin Zi-qing), Wu Ming-han picks up a red envelope on the side of the road because he thinks it is part of the evidence. In fact, the envelope is one of the properties for the spirit wedding procession that Mao Chen A-lan (Wang Man-chiao) prepared for his grandson, Mao Bang-yu (Austin Lin).
He loves his grandson so much that he holds a ghost wedding so that he will not be lonely. However, the envelope sticks and follows Wu Ming-han. At first, Wu Ming-han strongly rejects the marriage. However, a series of scary events begin to follow so that he has to accept the marriage procession.
