"The Horsemen", which will be opening in Hong Kong cinemas soon, is Zhang's third Hollywood film after "Rush Hour 2" and "Geisha". As opposed to the previous two films in which she acted as Chinese ladies adopted by American families and was not required to speak lengthy English, it is a great challenge for her this time round. "The Horsemen" was shot in Winnipeg, Canada, during the coldest time of the year in the country when temperature was at -35 degrees Celsius.
