Since leaving EXO, Luhan has received quite a lot of attention - both from his fans in Korea and China. Now, the ex-EXO member is busy making a name for himself in Hollywood. The star had recently shared photos of himself along with co-stars, Matt Damon and Andy Lau, in "The Great Wall."

After leaving EXO in 2014, Luhan has starred in a number of Chinese films and series. By March, it was rumored that Luhan would star in a Hollywood film. China Daily reported that Luhan would join the likes of Lin Genxin, Andy Lao, and TFBOYS for the film. In a report made by the Hollywood Reporter, "The Great Wall" is said to be "the largest film ever shot entirely in China for global distribution."

"The Great Wall" will reportedly be a film surrounding the mystery of China's Great Wall construction. There of course would be an element of a plot twist, which ironically involves sci-fi elements as reported by KPopStarz. The report goes on to add that the film was said to start by February, but had been delayed. The Zhang directed film is set to be released by 2016.

As for news regarding Luhan, it took a while before fans believed his casting in the said Hollywood film. While some fans of EXO refused to believe the news, it was finally confirmed after Luhan shared photos of himself alongside Andy Lau and Matt Damon.

On his personal Weibo account, Luhan shared photos of him beside Damon and Lau. The said photos were taken during the press conference of the film at Beijing. Aside from actively promoting the film, Luhan is also reportedly working on the lawsuit filed against him by SM Entertainment after his sudden withdrawal from EXO.

However, such setbacks have certainly not affected Luhan's net worth. Luhan along with Kris, both former members of EXO, had managed to make it to the Forbes China Celebrity 100 list of the year 2015. Luhan earned more than 28.5 million Yuan, which is approximately $4.58 million. He had also graced the cover of Forbes China, having been named the "new rising force" of the entertainment industry of China.
