Joe Ma Might Leave TVB, Jessica Hsuan Supports

Is Joe Ma another TVB's biological child leaving their mother company?

Joe Ma and Jessica Hsuan were filming outdoor scenes for their new drama "Flying Tigers" (tentative name). Joe expressed he doesn't have much dramas left in TVB after he finished this one. His contract with TVB is ending this year and he said no one approached him yet to talk about renewing it.

"I don't know whether I'm renewing or not," he said. "I just hope I can have a bigger market. Better salary and more good dramas to film."

His partner in the drama Jessica supports him to earn more money up in the North (Mainland).

"He can absolutely do it. If we don't earn money now, when could we?"

The actress expressed she is also filming a Mainland series like Joe after she is done filming "Flying Tigers." As for many older TVB artists are no longer TVB's biological children, she agreed.

"Many from my generation already left, only Sunny Chan remains. He always asks me to stay. Well I do like to work with people I'm familiar with."

Jessica Hsuan Not Afraid to Have Rumors With Joe Ma

Jessica Hsuan, Joe Ma, Him Law, etc attended to the costume fitting of a 13-episodes new series <飛虎> (rough translation: "Flying Tigers") and they showed up in their outfits in the series. Jessica plays an Inspector of Police for the Organised Crime Triad Bureau and Joe plays a Special Duties Unit member. There will be many actions scenes and Jessica was told to exercise more. Always "zero exercise," she said walking her dogs is the biggest workout.

Having a romantic relationship with Joe in the series, Jessica expressed she is not afraid to have rumors with Joe. As for Joe, who worked at the G4 [a police protection unit] before, he said G4 and Special Duties Unit are different. Asked whether he would train more, he said: "I need to! But I'll let those muscle men to show off muscle. I don't sell my muscle."

Playing a couple with Christine Kuo, Oscar Leung asked whether there would be intimate scenes, he said: "Should be. I smile when I thought about it. When she touched my hair earlier, I couldn't move. (Spark up a romantic relationship during filming?) It's hard to say! I'll let everyone know by then!"
