Despite weeks of heated fan wars and casting controversies, Lu Yuxiao and Zhang Linghe have officially been locked in as the leads for Tencent’s upcoming S+ blockbuster Revenge.

This high-profile project, a co-production between Tencent and Linmon Pictures, has been closely watched not just for its star-studded pairing, but for the fierce billing debates behind the scenes. In the hyper-competitive ecosystem of Chinese idol dramas, "top billing" dictates promotional priority and career prestige, often sparking intense fandom clashes before a camera even rolls. Despite the digital protests, the production has stood firm, with Lu securing the coveted first billing. As sources report, the official cast announcement has settled the pre-production disputes, with the leads remaining unchanged despite online pushback.

With the dust finally settling on the pre-production drama, all eyes are now on whether this visually striking duo can translate their online buzz into genuine on-screen chemistry when filming begins.
