In an official Weibo announcement, The One account wrote:
“A young man from a humble alley, refusing to be a caged bird, wields his sword to change his fate. Fearless and pure, he cuts through thorns step by step, paving his own path to success.”
Wu Lei’s global fan club revealed on Weibo that the official ceremony celebrating the start of filming will take place on Monday, November 10. According to information on Douban, The One is expected to be divided into multiple seasons. The part that begins filming this November is called Season 1, titled The Caged, consisting of 24 episodes.
In the currently announced cast list, only Wu Lei and Zhang Zhen are confirmed. Some actresses rumored to star in the drama include Vanda Magraf and Tian Xiwei.
Synopsis of The One
A seemingly ordinary town is actually on the brink of collapse, with various forces using it as a chessboard for plotting and scheming. Chen Ping’an, a young man from a humble alley, defies fate with a pure heart. Even when trapped in a “cage,” he will fight to find a way out—the Heavenly Dao is collapsing. I, Chen Ping’an, have only one sword, capable of moving mountains, severing rivers, overturning seas, subduing demons, suppressing monsters, commanding gods, plucking stars, destroying cities, and opening the heavens!
