There had been rumors of South Korean actor Lee Byung-hun may take a role in a new film by director John Woo, but the actor is not sure at the moment.

Lee's agency BH Entertainment spoke on Monday that "It is true that we received the appearance offer, but since Lee's filming schedule for a Korean movie may collide with director Woo's, So he is reviewing the offer at the moment. Nothing is decided yet."

Along with Lee, famous South Korean actress Ha ji-won was also offered appearance in the movie, but like Lee, Ha is also in the reviewing stage- her agency confirmed.

The new film by director Woo is the remake of a Japanese movie "Crossing Your River of Wrath". The filming will begin in June, in Osaka. The film's story is about a police officer who is wrongly charged and on the run to prove his innocence.
