It’s good that the lure of Hollywood hasn’t affected Michelle Yeoh that much, she’s not sold out and started making Hollywood movies galore and eased off on her talents and projects, and that’s always a nice thing to see.
That doesn’t mean that she’s not going to be appearing in Hollywood movies, and quite frankly that’s also a good thing. She’s a great actress and she looks lovely too. Moviehole are reporting that she’s almost signed up for Mission: Impossible 3, and thank the lord there’s some female talent coming to this movie!
According to Monkey Peaches, Yeoh ["Tomorrow Never Dies", "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon"] is in talks to play a role in Paramount’s “Mission : Impossible 3″. According to the actress, her deal’s near sealed for the Cruise blockbuster.
It also suggests that she’s up for a role in Young Hannibal too, and that this might cause scheduling conflicts.
If I were Yeoh (oh, the comedy) then I would seriously think about taking the Lecter movie. MI:3 is going to show audiences more of her in that Tomorrow Never Dies role. What Lecter could give her is a role that’s more psychological and less action, that could be something new for the Hollywood audiences. Also, MI:3 could end up as a stinker looking at current casting rumours. Which role would you suggest for her?

Duh, that’s a no-brainer: Lector!
If she has to choose, I hope she doesn’t pick MI:3, even if she doesn’t have to pick I think she should stay away from that movie.

I cant stop laughing here Richard! LOL
the hannibal series just gets less and less intelligent with each film. that said mi3 isn’t exactly going to be rocket science.
M:I-3. Yeoh may be able to save it.
Hmm, let me think about this one. If I was Michelle do I want to have someone shooting at me (MI-3) or risk getting my face eaten (Hannibal)? Man, I hope she does both movies. She be great!
More Yeoh the better!
