Wu Junru will seclude herself in August to have a second child. Recently, there have been rumors that Wu Junru is pregnant. During a previous interview, she denied these rumors, but did mention that she plans to "try for a baby" in August. When asked if Liu Jiaying was also planning on "trying for a baby," Wu Junru laughed and said, "That's great. Let's see who succeeds first." She currently does not consider herself as just a comedian. Although Wu Junru is a famous Hong Kong comedienne, after the release of the movie "969 Space Travel", she doesn't want people to categorize her as just a comedienne anymore. In this film, she aims to fully showcase her acting skills. She is very confident about her new movie: "I still cry when I read the fifth draft of the script." She says that movies with good scripts generally don't turn out too bad, but this movie has been quite challenging for her. She says, "As an actor, you must immerse yourself in your role while shooting. But once I immerse myself in my character, I can't pull myself out, which is quite troublesome. Moreover, I am now a mother, so I need to take care of my child, host TV programs, and act overly cheerful and funny. But during filming, I need to make myself appear deeply troubled: my child is sick, we have no money at home, our house was blown away by a typhoon... I almost went mentally unstable from juggling these two emotions. Then, the doctor told me that eating more bananas could help change this condition. As a result, I brought a lot of bananas to the set, and ended up getting the entire crew to eat bananas with me whenever they had free time. Later, while preparing for a scene where the child dies, the director and I were chatting and realized we both had the same symptoms. Originally, we were supposed to discuss the cemetery arrangements, but it turned into a discussion between me and the director about which medicine would be better." [Movie Network]
