It's interesting to watch the news about the project "Triple Threat" (already curious, it should be said). It seems that the creators of this film seriously intended to compete "Unstoppable" Sylvester Stallone, but with a twist on movie fighters.
The discussion (sorry, not on our website) about participation in the project has not yet ended Scott Adkins, Michael Jai White, Michael Bisping and changing the director to Jesse W. Johnson, how the creators of “Triple Threat” added new “signatories” to the ensemble cast.
A Thai actress and martial artist has joined the fantastic cast Gija Yanin (“Chocolate”) and Chinese actress Selina Jade (“Robotrading”, “War of the Wolves 2”). The girls will join another Chinese beauty featured in the film - Angela Baby. This was reported by the resource Film Combat Syndicate.
In total, we have so many star casts for action films that it becomes scary: Tiger Hu Chen, Tony JAA, Iko Uwais, Scott Adkins, Michael Jai White, Michael Bisping, Angela Baby, Selina Jade и Gija Yanin.
It is still unknown who will play what roles. Also, the filmmakers are very vague about the plot of the film. If earlier it was said that this would be the story of a Chinese martial artist saving his ex-wife and son from a drug cartel in Mexico, then today the plot concept of the film has changed. If you believe FCS, the action film is supposed to be about the daughter of a billionaire, who seeks protection from a ruthless cartel from two notorious fighters and a third who has joined them, seeking revenge on the head of this very cartel.
Despite the fact that Chad Stahelski dropped out of the director's post, there are persistent rumors that he will take the producer's chair and will be responsible for distributing the future film in the United States.
We can only wait for details about this extremely interesting project.
The cast of another anticipated martial arts film, a spinoff of the 2016 hit, has been very noticeably expanded "Ip Man 3" called "Chung Ting-Chi" (Cheung Tin-Chi) about the character Max Zhang.
At the film market FilMart it became known that the acting ensemble has been replenished with wildly intensified activity recently Tony JAA, Hollywood star Dave Bautista (“Guardians of the Galaxy”) and Undying Michelle Yeoh (TV series “Marco Polo”), which, we recall, became best action movie actress for 2016 year according to our website.
Also at the level of rumors, participation in the project itself is being discussed. Donnie Yen as Master Yip to support the film. However, journalists are unanimous in the opinion that most likely this will be an extended cameo and nothing more.
This will be logical, since filming is scheduled to start in 2018 fourth film from the franchise "Ip Man", where Ian will once again reprise his central (in many ways) role.
There is still no official synopsis for the film, although the film's director is a renowned Yuen Woo-Ping plans to release the film next summer. However, the exact date of the premiere "Chung Ting-Chi" not named yet.
But new posters for the future film have appeared. Well, we're keeping our fingers crossed, waiting for the trailer.
If you are a fan of great creativity Sammo Hunga, then get ready for good news. The master's newly created film studio in Shanghai Sammo Hung Films announced an interesting project. We're talking about a new film from the classic Golden Harvest franchise. "Lucky Stars" called "The Return of the Lucky Stars" (The Return of Lucky Stars).
As the Mike Leader on your website Impact, the new film will feature not only the classic ensemble cast of stars (Sammo Hung, Richard Ng, John Sham, Eric Tsang), but also a new generation of "lucky ones" who will continue the series.
Nothing more is known about the project yet, so we can only wait.
By the way, a press release from Sammo Hung Films talked about work on the following titles: I-Ching Warriors, The Detrimental Protectors, Back to School, Silk Road, To Catch a Killer и Operation: Ground Zero.

The only thing that bothers me is the title of the film. it sounds like a teen show.
TIMMONS,
Which movie exactly? :)
Interesting. I would like for everything to be the same and for Chad Stahelski to remain the director. Tony Jaa and Scott Adkins have been active lately, which is encouraging. I hope there will be less pathos than the unstoppable ones.
TIMMONS,
Stahelski is no longer a director. Let's hope that he will at least be among the producers.
Danil Chupakhin,
He is responsible for promotion and action. I read it on imdb
Yaroslav,
On imdb, at the initial stages of projects, the information is often incorrect or not confirmed. It was said that Tim Man is handling the action.
I'm afraid Triple Threat will be a big disappointment. The more star-studded the cast, the weaker the film, as practice shows. All the stars simply don’t have enough screen time either to reveal their characters, or just to really do something in the frame. If all the announced stars get at least one fight in the film, then there will be no time left for a clear plot. Most likely it will be a cameo and a waste of money, as often happens. :( I really want to be wrong. :)
He,
Dadada, like in the movie "The Losers" or in Gruner's latest work.
uranium,
Hardly. Everything is logical here - every Asian will have a fight with a “white”. Why Jija is here is unclear.
Danil Chupakhin,
They'll sew a fight with some white thread.
uranium,
So in the film there are no white actresses in leading roles :) Everyone is narrow-eyed.
