Cecilia Cheung, Vanness Wu’s “Love Won’t Wait” to Air in May
Since 2010, Cecilia Cheung (張栢芝) was widely credited as box office poison as her films all flopped in terms of sales. However, fans can finally see Cecilia in a television drama again as her new Mainland series Love Won’t Wait <如果，愛> is slated to premiere in May.
Starring in her first drama since 2008’s The Wandering Songstress <天涯歌女>, Love Won’t Wait depicts the story of a woman who suffers the death of her child. In turn, she receives the cold shoulder from her husband and mother-in-law. Deciding to escape her cruel fate, Cecilia leaves her toxic family behind and attempts to find a new road to happiness.
While the drama does not directly point fingers at her previous relationship with Nicholas Tse (謝霆鋒), many netizens read between the lines and believed the story was somewhat loosely based on her failed marriage with the actor.
As one of the producers on the show, Cecilia hopes to make a breakthrough with her role and to leave her “box office poison” title behind. More worried about her Mandarin pronunciation the most, Cecilia ensured she paid extra attention to the voice dubbing.
With Taiwanese super star Vanness Wu (吳建豪) as Cecilia’s emotionally abusive husband, fans can expect many heart wrenching moments when the drama airs on May 22.

Vanness Wu – Yes, finally!!! He looks very good in the above promotional pic. I have never watched anything of Cecelia Cheung but she looks great too. I will keep an eye out for this even thou I don’t watch mainland dramas. 🙂
i do not like the voice-overs, they make the show sound like an old people’s drama although the plot is like said.
This drama looks depressing but still give it a shot as there is 2 hot actors there.
Off topic, what happened to the movie Cecilia starred together with TOP of Big Bang? Seems like it was never aired.
I only saw Vanness in princess weiyoung and he was one note there. And I don’t feel much for his character in the trailer because it seems his acting is weak 🙁 or I just don’t feel the emotions as it should be of a father who lost a son. Also uh, story wise – so old. The young guy, who is the doctor in charge for her son, feels guilty and try to make her happy to lessen his guilt, but fall in love with her then they found out Vanness has brain tumour? So they let the two of them get back together???? Pass lol
“super star Vanness”? For my life i don’t see what’s so great about this guy.
