maybe the actors didn't want to kiss.. perhaps they didn't get along during the filming of the movie . But then again Jet Li did not kiss Mira Sorvino in the replacement killers.. And Mira's character wanted to kiss him so badly.
maybe it was Jet Li who didn't want to..
I read an interview with Jet, containing 5 or 6 pages. He never kisses his female actors because he gets nervous and then turns red.

Jet Li wasn't in the Replacement Killers. It was Chow-Yun Fat. share
It's Chow Yun Fat not Jet Lei in the Replacement Killers.
shareit´s true about the age difference ,,,but they don´t look they´re 20 years apart, jet li looks younger
shareI kind of had the impression Jet Li may have been playing a little younger in this film.
When the hurly-burly's done. When the battle's lost and won.
I agree here. Jet looked 27. Although, at this time he has aged a lot. Damn, how the hell did that happen.
Plus I think the people making the film felt that a kissing scene between an almost 40 year old male and a 21 year old female would just not look right. I think the movie was fine without the kissing scene.
Jet Li was only 36 when this premiered and like a lot of asians looked a lot younger than his actual age. The romance in this movie was a joke, they treated Li's character like he was her little brother (friend). The only thing "the people making the film" felt would not look right was an asian man as a actual romantic figure/love interest and basically said lets just stick to the usual kung fu stuff. I guess romeo must die just seemed like a catchy title, because there was no romance and this was no modern day romeo and juliet (some lame similarities yes, the biggest aspect however, again the romance, was omitted).
I did enjoy the film to some degree, but was just hoping they would portray asian men in a more positive light other than martial arts. share
I wonder how people felt back in 1975 when the movie The Wilby Conspiracy was brought out. In that movie, Sidney Poitier (Afro-American) and Persis Khambetta (Indian) were kissing each other and did some other sexual activity in the European version of the movie. He was 48 years old, and she was 24 years old. Nowadays, they have shown the kissing and sex scene of that movie on American TV and have it on the DVDs and VHSs that are sold in the USA.
shareGot it correct gygibo. Jet Li didnt think it was appropriate since Aliyah was much younger than him and he was worried her fan base would be offended. Since most of the kids assumed she was still a teenager.

that is one big copout by hollywood. there are tons of a-list white male leads slobbering all over their younger co-stars. nic cage (43) made out with jessica biel (24) in recent film 'next', and they showed their affection very liberally throughout the film. i'll do you one better, bill murray (53) kissed scarlett johansson (19!) at the end of 'lost in translation' and critics raved over this final scene. but if it were an asian man it would be soooo wrong somehow and worry about the young girl's fanbase? give me a break. please don't try to defend these biased, closet lolita-lovin' white hypocrites. share
