Can Mandopop superstar Jay Chou be action man?

Gritty, violent and oh-so-macho. Taiwanese pop idol Jay Chou has dropped his squeaky clean image with his turn as a hard-nosed cop in Hong Kong action thriller, The Viral Factor.

With acclaimed director Dante Lam helming the film, the singer-turned-actor calls this role ‘a new milestone’ in his acting career. In the film, he plays an international agent who struggles to reconcile with his long-lost brother, a wanted criminal played by Nichloas Tse.

And if you are wondering whether the 33-year-old can pull off such a gritty and emotionally-charged character, Lam put these worries to rest when in Singapore recently with Chou to plug the movie.
