Former EXO member Kris is likely to star in yet another Chinese film “You Are Still Here,” Chinese news outlet reported Saturday.

Sina reported that Kris, whose real name is Wu Yifan, would play the male lead in the upcoming film as a counterpart to Chinese actress Crystal Liu.

After departing from boy band EXO and the K-pop music scene, Kris has received a flood of offers for a part in mainly Chinese movies.

He was also recently offered a role in filmmaker Guan Hu’s new movie “Lao Pao’er,” giving a boost to his acting career.

The idol-turned-actor‘s debut film “Somewhere Only We Know” will hit theaters on Feb. 14.

Meanwhile, Kris is still seeking to settle a legal dispute with his former label SM Entertainment.

He filed for a termination of his contract last year, claiming exploitation, human rights violations, unjust distribution of profits and unreasonable schedules.
