Peep all the goods below along with the official announcement:
ALLEN, Texas (Jan. 27, 2026) – Leading international and indie film distributor Well Go USA Entertainment has acquired North American Distribution rights to the Chinese film BLADES OF THE GUARDIANS from Mandarin Motion Pictures. The film will be released on February 17.
Based on the comic by Xianzhe Xu, the historical action film BLADES OF THE GUARDIANS is directed by master filmmaker and action director Yuen Woo-ping; boasts an all-star cast including Wu Jing (Wolf Warrior series), who also produced the film, Jet Li (Once Upon a Time in China), Nicholas Tse (Raging Fire), Yosh Yu (Creation of the Gods I: Kingdom of Storms), and boyband sensations JUN (Wen Junhui) of Seventeen and Winwin of NCT. BLADES OF THE GUARDIANS was produced by Peace Film Production and written by Yu Baimei, Chao-pin Su, Chan Tai Lee and Larry Yang.
Set during the Sui Dynasty under the rule of the oppressive Emperor Yang Guang, BLADES OF THE GUARDIANS follows a skilled mercenary (Biao Ren) as he treks across the harsh deserts of the Western Regions. Tasked with a seemingly simple escort mission, the warrior unknowingly becomes caught in a perilous scheme that promises danger at every turn.
“BLADES OF THE GUARDIANS is a sweeping action epic led by legends of the genre,” said Doris Pfardrescher, President and CEO of Well Go USA Entertainment. “With Yuen Woo-ping’s masterful direction and an extraordinary ensemble led by Wu Jing and Jet Li, the film delivers high-intensity action on a grand scale. The film is a celebration of martial arts cinema, a genre that has long been at the heart of Well Go’s identity and global audience connection.”
