If you’re pining for more Donnie Yen action post-Ip Man 3D, you won’t have to wait very long. Director Yuen Woo-Ping’s latest directorial offering in Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon 2: Sword Of Destiny, is on course for a theatrical and Netflix release in February and the first footage is now available in the form of a trailer teaser.
Preceded by a tie-in novel next month from Weinstein Publishing, the film rejoins Yen with returning actress, martial arts star Michelle Yeoh from a script by John Fusco that centers on a band of warriors aimed at protecting the 400-year old blade, The Green Destiny. Other cast members include Harry Shum Jr., Jason Scott Lee, Roger Yuan, Eugenia Yuan and Veronica Ngo and we’ll soon learn a little more about how they all fit into the visual feats aimed at continuing the legacy awarded in director Ang Lee’s 2000 hit film.
For now though, we get 16 seconds of it.
