Vietnamese Martial Arts Romp, LUC VAN TIEN: KUNGFU HUSTLE, Heads To AOF MEGAFEST 2018

It’s been more than a year and a half since martial arts and stunt wunderkind Andy Long set a new benchmark with his debut starring lead in director Hoang Phuc Nguyen’s action adventure, Luc Van Tien: KungFu Hustle. The film has already seen a few audiences outside Vietnam where it was release in January 2017 while not a word was mentioned on any movement toward acquisitions and sales that I knew of. Fast forward to summer 2018 and with as much of an effort as it probably took for Long’s milestone segue into acting following a stellar path paved in independent action cinema and in the membership throes of film legend Jackie Chan. Thus, audiences as of next week in Las Vegas, Nevada will be the first bear witness this month at the Action On Film Megafest where the film will finally make its North American debut with seven nomimations […]

FOXTROT SIX

Mario Kassar’s FOXTROT SIX Locks And Loads With An Intense First Teaser

Heralded Hollywood exec producer Mario Kassar’s recent exploits in Southeast Asia are no longer a visual mystery with the first teaser footage now running for forthcoming sci-fi action thriller, Foxtrot Six. The film marks Randy Korompis’ directorial debut, and it’s a pretty sizeable one for a film of its kind it its own region, backed by a budget of up to ten million (last we heard) and slated to be the first of hopefully several initial Hollywood-style blockbuster Southeast Asia productions in recent memory. Exact plot details are super thin though the initial teaser poster, plus the teaser and the newest poster just beneath give way to a clear view of a dystopian setting laden with heavy artillery and weapons along with a bit of Indonesian fight fare to help tease some, courtesy of Mile 22 star Iko Uwais’s own action design unit.

Sony Pictures, for what it’s worth, may be all in with all things spiders and superheroes in the years to come with a whole line-up of characters in the works for film and likely even TV. The darkly-pursued anti-hero, Venom, stands as one of them with Ruben Fleischer at the helm and with a profile bolstering steadily among fandoms, including most recently at Comic-Con in San Diego.

MILE 22 Gets Sh!t Done With A Final Trailer

Need a little something to tie you down until the release of Timo Tjahjanto’s The Night Comes For Us?… Good, so do I. Per my own fandom toward martial arts star Iko Uwais, I’m looking forward to the release of Peter Berg’s new action thriller, Mile 22. Mark Wahlberg leads the cast and that he’s there to put a face to a potential franchise launcher is nice and all, but if I’m being frank, just give me more Iko and I’ll be on my way. And possibly some more Ronda too? That’d be nice! In a visceral modern thriller from the director of Lone Survivor, Mark Wahlberg stars as James Silva, an operative of the CIA’s most highly-prized and least-understood unit. Aided by a top-secret tactical command team, Silva must retrieve and transport an asset who holds life-threatening information to Mile 22 for extraction before the enemy closes in.
