Fantasy

Inspired by the rich history of Chinese mythology, this sweeping fantasy is set in the ancient Kingdom of Xia and tells the coming of age story of Skybright, a young girl who worries about her growing otherness. As she turns 16, Skybright notices troubling changes. By day, she is a companion and handmaid to the youngest daughter of a very wealthy family. But nighttime brings with it a darkness that not even daybreak can quell. When her plight can no longer be denied, Skybright learns that despite a dark destiny, she must struggle to retain her sense of self – even as she falls in love for the first time.

Re: Serpentine

Ohh all veteran actors. I agree with all your choices and you're lucky to not have caught the virus/addiction that is Asian Dramas. So...addicting...
Since I haven't read the book yet, not sure who I'd like to see casted, but I think I'd like to see Constance Wu, Ellen Wong, and Harry Shum Jr. if it ever becomes a movie in the US/western market.

Most of the Asian actors and actresses are from the 70's and 80's that I knew back then. I haven't kept up with the current Asian actors and actresses so I wouldn't have a good cast for your characters.
