Seven Samurai Remake (2008)
From: http://www.iht.com/articles/ap/2006/..._New_Movie.php
IMDB has it listed but you have to have an IMDBPro account to see the info.
The statement from Mandate also said Zhang will star in "Shanghai" with Clive Owen and "Seven Samurai," both produced by Harvey Weinstein's The Weinstein Co., without giving any detail.
"Seven Samurai" was earlier reported as a remake of the 1954 Akira Kurosawa classic about a group of warriors who defend a village attacked by bandits. Zhang will reportedly play a village girl who dresses as a man to protect herself.

Another remake of the Seven Samurai? Has a lot to live up to considering how well the first remake went, hell if Westerns were still 'in' I'm sure they'd be doing a remake of the remake.
Wonder if there will be any giant robots.

So she'll be misscast much as she was in Memoirs of a Geisha?
