China DailyThe Legend of Hao Lan, which uses the major cast of the popular series Story of Yanxi Palace, is one of the highlighted titles in Tencent Pictures' new lineup. Co-financing deals for blockbusters such as Zhang Yimou's latest film Shadow and the new Terminator outing, have quickly propelled Tencent Pictures－a newcomer that made its first foray in China's film industry in 2015－into the upper rankings of global movie backers. In the new 33-title lineup unveiled on Monday by Tencent Pictures, the film and television arm of Chinese internet giant Tencent Holdings Ltd, two big-budget Hollywood players revealed that the Chinese media company is now on board as one of their financiers. Another Hollywood film backed by Tencent Pictures is Venom, Sony Pictures' upcoming film about the titular Marvel Comics character, starring English actor Tom Hardy.
