Oh boy, here we go again. Even though he once said, years ago while makingFearless, that he'd never star in a martial arts epic again, theAssociated Press(viaMarketSaw) reports thatJet Lihas been cast in exactly that - a"new 3-D kung fu epic"titleFlying Swords of Dragon Gate. It's being directed by veteran Kong Kong filmmakerTsui Hark(The Blade, Once Upon a Time in China III& V +TV Series, Seven Swords, All About Women) and will also star China's Zhou Xun and Chen Kun, Taiwan's Kwai Lun-mei and Mavis Fan. It has a modest budget of around$35 millionand is being planned for release in December 2011.Read on!
Flying Swords of Dragon Gate'sstory is apparently inspired by Tsui's 1992 martial arts filmDragon Inn, which revolves around a face-off between the imperial agents and a warrior couple at a desert inn. Shooting has already begun in China. So they'veworked togetherbefore, and maybe Tsui convinced him to shoot this? Or maybe he's returning because he loves doing it, who cares, Jet Li is awesome, and it'll be great to see him starring in another new martial arts epic. Although if you sawThe Expendables, heisgetting just a little bit old nowadays. Anyway, even if you don't like Jet Li returning again, apparently this freight train has already started running, and there's no stopping it. We'll let you know when we hear more about this!Thoughts?
