Hong Kong actress-singer Cecilia Cheung's first film after giving birth to her second son with actor Nicolas Tse will be a collaborative work with director Derek Yee, the "Yangcheng Evening Post" reports.

Yee said Cheung would sign the film contract after he came back from the ongoing Shanghai Film Festival. Yee also said he had been waiting for two years for Cheung to make the film when her second pregnancy postponed the project.

"Lost in Time," Yee and Cheung's first film together, helped Cheung win the best actress award at the Hong Kong Film Awards in 2004.

Yee, 52, has been directing for 24 years. The talented director has won more than 60 awards both at home and abroad for his 14 films. Before becoming a director, Yee was a successful actor who starred in about 40 movies.

Cheung gave birth to her second son, Quintus, last month. She had been absent from the entertainment industry for about three years since she had her first son, Lucas, in 2007.
