This article about IRIS the Movie was on allkpop:

As you guys know, hit drama IRIS is scheduled to come back with the drama, Athena: Goddess of War.

Two main male cast Jung Woo Sung and Cha Seung Won have been already confirmed, which left many curious about who the female lead might be.

Recently, rumors about actress Ha Ji Won joining the cast have been floating around. But on the 19th, the drama’s production company Taewon Entertainment stated:

The rumors about Ha Ji Won being confirmed as the female lead is not true. Currently, her schedule for the movie Seven Remedies and Athena overlap, so she cannot join the cast. … A female lead will be confirmed in the upcoming 2-3 days.

Furthermore, Taewon Entertainment revealed about the “real” sequel of IRIS, stating:

Athena: Goddess of War, which has been called “IRIS 2,” is only a spin off drama. So technically, it isn’t the real sequel. … IRIS’s real sequel, IRIS 2, is scheduled to be produced and broadcast in the latter half of 2011.



On being asked about Lee Byung Hun and Kim Tae Hee returning in the real sequel, he stated, “Because it is a sequel, of course they will be cast for it.”

Athena is scheduled to broadcast in the latter half of 2010, while IRIS 2 will be broadcasted in the latter half of 2011, making it a trilogy of some sorts. Stay tuned to allkpop as the female lead will be confirmed in the upcoming 2-3 days!

I still haven't seen the end of IRIS, grrrrr. . .damn B&W for taking my attention (BTW am perusing your B&W tags to see your reaction shots).

I honestly don't think the IRIS sequel is true though. That article was the only article I read that seemed definitive; the other articles seemed based on rumours and also, LBH and KTH have yet to comment on it. But considering the ending of IRIS (from what I know about it), I guess it would be a good thing if there was a sequel.

What I want to know is who the female lead of Athena will be?!!?! That's the deciding factor whether or not I'll watch it!

I don't care if they cast a female puppet - I'll watch Athena anyway. But please please let it be HJW!

B&W = amazing. Arguably my fave twdrama ever.

Ack! Mousie! Spoiler! (Not for me, but I know someone who reads your journal and I haven't made her watch IRIS yet.)

Really? I dunno, my spoiler policy is if something has been over for a couple of months, I comment on it without cuts unless I know someone on my flist plans to watch it/is watching it and is a spoilerphobe.

(That is why I cut all big period drama spoilers - meganbmoore is a spoilerphobe for them and she plans to watch most of them at some point).

I guess I'll cut it.

I am such a spoilerphile myself, I confess I have no spoiler radar left at all :)

Well in this case I've just been waiting to spring IRIS on my friend, and I know she reads your journal and I didn't want her to ruin it for herself. (Though she probably already has a general idea, given I can't mention it to her without being like *SOB*)

I cut it, so hopefully she didn't see.

I have NO willpower when it comes to spoilers. None.

The last thing I managed to be spoiler-free for was Farscape the Miniseries and that must have been what - 2004?

Thank you!!

I used to avoid spoilers like the plague but I find myself cracking more and more. Is it possible to lose your resistance for them? Or maybe they're like crack, just a taste and you can never stop...

I don't even care how they bring it about - for all I care he can be revived by unicorns. As long as he's alive!

They better be telling the truth about this!

If Lee Byung Hun does not return, meaning his character died after all, I might just fly over to Korea to stab that guy from the interview.

But if it's really true, then yay! :D

I know! Please let it be true!

OMG! If this is true, you just made my day!!! Although we have a long time to patiently wait...

good thing ATHENA comes kind of soon ;)

Btw, I've read in a blog about Korean news that The Influence part 1 (that online movie starring Lee Byung Hun) is out there somewhere... because somebody already found it and watched it without subs...

I'm just saying because I bet you're better with these things... If you find it, please let me know... so far, I haven't had luck finding it...

I can pm you MU links to parts 1 and 2, raw, if you like :)

Also, no idea if you were interested, but White Night with Go Soo is finally out with subs.

Seriously, this is the best news since the ending is so fresh for me. I hope it's true!

That would be great if it would be the truth. Didn't they say at the beginning that LBH wasn't going to be in it because of GI Joe? So now they pushed back the release date and they are going to bring him back?
