Hong Kong actor Tony Leung Chiu Wai will be a juror at next month's Berlin Film Festival, headed by US producer James Schamus, organizers said on Tuesday.

Leung's most recent role in "The Grandmaster," directed by Wong Kar Wai, was the opening film of the 2013 Berlinale.

Schamus' diverse resume includes the Oscar-winning 2005 gay cowboy drama, "Brokeback Mountain," on which he worked with director Ang Lee, one of a string of such collaborations.

Schamus' "The Wedding Banquet", another collaboration with Ang Lee, won the Golden Bear in 1993.

The 64th Berlinale kicks off on February 6 with American Film, "The Grand Budapest Hotel," directed by Wes Anderson. The awards conclude on February 16.
