"Legend of the Female General" official Weibo has released a new still, as the drama has already appeared on MangoTV Mainland China and is now open for reservation.
*It will officially broadcast soon on Tencent Video, MangoTV, and HunanTV (Prime Time).
Finally, it has officially started! I remember seeing on Weibo a few weeks ago that Tencent Video was planning…
Maybe. There are still some rumors on Weibo about an August 6 premiere.
If Tencent Video and MangoTV starts the pre-heating phase or releases promotional materials every day and releases the trailer, then that's a hint the drama will air soon and the official announcement of the premiere date is near. We will see next week, and I'm also hoping for early August.
Tencent Video's historical drama "Legend of the Female General" has officially started soliciting investment before the broadcast schedule.
Broadcast Schedule: August 2025 (tentative) Genre: Historical Romance Drama Episodes: 36 episodes Cast: Zhou Ye, Cheng Lei, Zhang Kangle, Zhang Miaoyi, Bai Shu, etc. Broadcast Platforms: Tencent Video, MangoTV
— Drama Highlights — 📍 [Intense & Exciting] A legendary new take on a classic IP. Adapted from the rebirth series by Qianshan Chake, a renowned author from Xiaoxiang Academy, following the success of The Rebirth of the Malicious Military Consort. 📍 [Ultimate Romance] A fierce wolf-like young general and a cool, reborn female general fall into an epic love story — from mistrust to alliance, a thrilling romance filled with sugar amid blades, satisfying revenge, and an exhilarating underdog comeback. 📍 [Surprising Characters] After being betrayed and killed, the female general is reborn and rises again, breaking free from the inner-court struggles to defend her country on the battlefield. The male lead, Xiao Jue, defies his era’s norms with his deep respect for women, and together they embrace both their missions and their feelings. 📍 [Rich in Comedy] Sweet moments bloom amid life-and-death stakes. The female lead hides her strength behind a harmless facade, while the cold-faced male lead turns out to be a cunning strategist. Their witty, teasing interactions and the highly distinctive comedic supporting roles bring plenty of laughs.
