According to the resource Film Business Asia production of a new action film will begin in January 2013 "Enter The Master" с Donnie Yen starring.
The action will take place in Chinatown of one of the American cities, and Ian He will play a former martial arts expert who finds himself in the middle of a war between two factions of the Chinese triad after he is framed by one of the newly arrived immigrants with whom he has become friends. The role of the aforementioned newcomer will star Nicholas Tse.
"Donnie and Nicholas have worked together before, but Enter The Master will take their teamwork to the next level as they pit each other against each other, not just emotionally, but physically as well." - I said, Albert Lee, CEO of the company Emperor Motion Pictures.

The film could have been renamed. The last time we heard about it was at last year's Cannes Film Festival, then it was called The Master.
Hi all! Has anyone heard anything about what's going on with ENTER THE MASTER? There is no news about this film, no posters or trailers. There were not even any photos from the shooting. Was it started at all or rolled into a tube?
According to preliminary data, the film will begin filming in mid-March.
What about the old rumors that Donnie and Tony Jaaa will be involved in a joint project? It's all gossip. Nicholas Tse is like... like a little brother to Donny.
Raymond Wong wanted a lot, but I warned even then that these were just rumors that did not have official confirmation.
Donnie Yen on Ip Man 3D:
Let's see. I know the fans want me to play this character again, but I have to figure out other projects first and then decide whether I want to do it or not.
It’s just that Nicholas Tse, of all the pop stars in Hong Kong, is the only one who properly studied martial arts.
Nicholas Tse - got it in the egg))
The news is very good, but... Why are they putting Nicholas in, he’s not a good guy in the BI anyway. It would be nice if he trained, but no... In the last film about Shaolin, he showed just a zero level. It seems that after the film “The Invisible Target” (where he showed, in my opinion, the heights of his capabilities), he simply gave up on training, apparently deciding that he was just incredibly “cool”. :)
Both films have been shot and are in post-production, but King of the Monkeys has a lot of CGI, so it won't be released until summer 2013.
In Special Identity, Vincent was replaced by Andy On.
It’s interesting to know what’s going on with the film where he also wanted to act with Vincent Zhao, but he refused and for some reason we haven’t heard anything about “The Monkey King”...
Uhhhh, this is going to be really interesting!
But this is very good news! Finally something from Donny in a modern style. He will give all the spectators a light!!! And I think Nicholas Tse will not disappoint. Keep it up!
