Indonesian silat master and actor Iko Uwais, seems to be bouncing between projects that don't always pan out. Until now, nothing is known about the militants "Corridor" и "Express to Chinatown", where he was supposed to play the main roles. Uwais only has a supporting role in a science fiction action film. "Ash".

But there was news that Iko got the main role in a mid-budget action movie "Path of War" (Warpath) from the director Liam O'Donnell, with whom the Indonesian has already worked in a fantasy action film "Skyline 2". Let us recall that O'Donnell developed the fourth part its franchise, but there is still no new information about the project.

Exact plot details are unknown, but the news says Uwais will play a petty criminal who, after discovering a powerful artifact in the midst of a world-changing event, embarks on a dangerous mission across Indonesia to save his people from hostility from a group of dangerous enemies.

Uwais also involves his team in the design of the fight scenes. We just have to wait for news.

Martial arts practitioner, stuntman and actor Lewis Tan (“Mortal Kombat”) has acquired a new project. And not just any movie, but a biopic about his own father, a martial artist and Hollywood stunt legend. Philippa Tane, the script for which he himself wrote, and is also going to produce the film. He will also play the main role.

Tang Jr. said the following about the upcoming film:

- I wrote it as a coming-of-age story in which [the father's] story is divided into three parts. The first is about growing up in China and then growing up in London, dealing with racism, loneliness, anger and pain. The action then moves to the 70s, when he began to make a name for himself. That's what we need - we need to be able to tell original stories.

There are no details about casting or team recruitment yet, as the project is in its early stages and news should be released soon.

Tan senior, born in Singapore and raised in the UK, had a background in gymnastics and martial arts, which launched his career in 1980 with The Evil Plot of Dr. Fu Manchu, starring Peter Sellers. Now an accomplished stunt coordinator and action director on nearly a hundred films, Philip has made a career of working with a variety of famous directors, including Tim Burton, Michael Bay, brothers (then) wachowski, Steven Spielberg и David Leitch. You can learn more about this stunt performer from thorough interview, translated specifically for our website.

We are waiting for news. The project is interesting.

The third part of the boxing franchise "Creed" was coolly received by critics, but still collected a good box office, which allowed us to talk about a sequel.

And here is the main star of the franchise and director of the threequel Michael B. Jordan announced that a fourth film is officially in development. Producer Irwin Wikler, responsible for the entire franchise since the first "Rocky" (1976) confirmed the beginning of the preparatory process.

- We have a really good story and a good plot [for the fourth installment]. We've been a little delayed due to [writers and actors] strikes, but we'll be starting pre-production in about a year.

Jordan will again sit in the director's chair, who will also produce the film and play the main role. Let us also recall that Amazon is developing a series about Creed's daughter, about which, however, there is no news yet.

We are at a loss as to what else the story of boxer Creed could be about and who could become his opponent. You can speculate about this in the comments.
