    BEIJING, Sept.29 (Xinhuanet) -- The working title of the upcoming Wong Kar-Wai film starring Nicole Kidman, is The Lady From Shanghai.

    The story will be set in the 1930's Shanghai, the birth place of Wong Kar-Wai.

    Chang Shuping, the art director and costume designer for most of Wong's films, has arrived in the United States to work on Nicole Kidman's character.

    Shooting will start in February, most likely in Shanghai.
