Tony Leung Looked Totally Lost During A Shanghai Film Fest Group Photo, And The Internet Can't Get Enough
The actor seemed unsure where to stand while posing with his fellow jury members, and accidentally ended up blocking Chinese actress Xin Zhilei.
For someone who's spent more than four decades in the spotlight, Tony Leung can still look a little lost in front of the cameras.
The 63-year-old screen legend, who is serving as jury president at the Shanghai International Film Festival, became the unexpected star of the red carpet after an adorably awkward group photo mishap.
While wife Carina Lau was busy serving queen energy on the red carpet, Tony looked every bit the shy hubby we've come to know and love. But the real comedy unfolded moments later.
In videos circulating online, Tony suddenly realises that the rest of the jury members have already assembled on a staircase for a group photo. Cue panic mode.
The actor is seen hastily scurrying away from the red carpet and making a beeline for the group, looking like a student who just realised class photo day had started without him.
Once he reaches the stairs, he looks completely unsure of where he's supposed to stand.
He cautiously shuffles around, glancing left and right, before plonking himself right smack in the centre... blocking Chinese actress Xin Zhilei.
The hilarious blunder left those on stage visibly amused, with Zhilei and several jury members breaking into smiles as Tony flashed an awkward grin at the cameras.
Thankfully, everyone quickly rearranged themselves before the photo was taken.
The videos quickly went viral, with netizens joking that Tony had somehow managed to make a mistake in the most careful way possible.
If there were an award for "Most Endearing Red Carpet Mishap", we'd say the trophy is already his.
