The pair were recently spotted filming in Shenzhen, China, as reported by The Star. Their project is a legal drama, with Sheh, 49, playing a lawyer and Tam, 55, portraying her ex-husband.

Excited about the collaboration, Tam shared his enthusiasm on Facebook.

"There are many potential stars everyone’s familiar with. Yes, I’ve been looking forward to working with all of you," he wrote. "My relationship with Ah Sheh in this movie is even more... no spoilers, so sorry."

He also posted a selfie with the cast and crew.

Sheh and Tam last worked together in the 2004 action drama "Angels of Mission," and since then, fans have flooded their social media accounts to share past and present photos of the duo. Tam expressed his gratitude for their support, acknowledging the wave of nostalgia surrounding their reunion.

Sheh began her entertainment career as the first runner-up in the Miss Hong Kong pageant in 1997 and quickly rose to fame with TVB, starring in popular series such as "War and Beauty," "Beyond the Realm of Conscience," and "Forensic Heroes."

After leaving TVB in 2016, she established Charmaine Sheh Workshop Limited and expanded her acting career in China, receiving acclaim for her role in the 2018 series "Story of Yanxi Palace."

In 2023, Sheh made a comeback to TVB, starring in "The Queen of News" and winning her third Best Actress award at the TVB Awards.

Tam entered the entertainment industry after winning the 1988 New Talent Awards.

After an unsuccessful stint in the music industry, he was on the verge of giving up his career in entertainment when a TVB representative approached him, leading him to begin his acting journey.

He got his first break when he won the Best Supporting Actor award at the 18th annual Hong Kong Film Awards in 1999 for his role as Push Pin in "Beast Cops."

His next notable achievement came in 2001 when he won a Best Supporting Actor award at the Taipei Golden Horse Film Festival for his role as Man in "Born Wild."
