Vanness Wu in a new band

It seems like Taiwanese singer-actor Vanness Wu, who is famous for his roles in Meteor Garden and Autumn's Concerto, is forming a new rock and roll band.

His upcoming movie The Road Less Travelled will open in theatres on December 12. The film tells the story of five music lovers -- Vanness Wu, Jimmy Hung, Dean Fujioka, Long Chen Han and Eric Tu -- and their road to forming the band SMASH. The quintet made their official debut on November 13, attracting more than 300 fans at a promotional event.

This is the heartthrob's  third group in his showbiz career. He debuted as an F4 member back in 2001 together with Jerry Yan, Vic Zhou and Ken Zhu. Later, he also collaborated with Korean superstar Kangta.

When asked if he is worried about falling out with good friend Jimmy, Vanness replied, "All groups have their share of ups and downs, but at the end of the day, we're still friends. This group is different from before; we have chemistry with each other."

In the film, the singer mocked himself for being a former F4 member, saying, "You wouldn't put me into silly idol groups like F4 and Tension, would you?"

The singer confessed that "rock n' roll is every man's dream" and revealed that he is the lead singer of SMASH. The group will soon be holding a concert tour around Taiwan to promote the movie and hoped to release an album in the future.
