Jackie Chan’s BLEEDING STEEL Crosses Over To The U.S. On July 6!

In an action-packed drama reminiscent of ‘80s techno-sci-fi thrillers, Jackie Chan stars as Lin, a police inspector in modern Hong Kong. While tracking down a deranged, mecha-enhanced villain, Lin discovers that a geneticist’s lost bio-chemical invention has been surgically implanted into his missing daughter. With the help of a young hacker, Lin connects the dots between the device that haunts his daughter, his enemy’s sinister army, and a strange cultural phenomenon called “Bleeding Steel.” Bleeding Steel is an action thriller featuring memorable battle sequences with martial arts legend Jackie Chan.

AFM 2017: Swen Group Picks Up Jackie Chan Sci-Fi, BLEEDING STEEL, For A Multiterritorial December 22 Release

Leo Zhang’s China-Australia co-production, Bleeding Steel is readying releases worldwide thanks in large part to its worldwide acquisition by Swen Asia, excluding China. The Swen Group’s Swen Asia shingle is prepping a simultaneous day-and-date theatrical and digital rollout in association with WME-IMG China on December 22 with territories slated for North America, the U.K., Australia, New Zealand, Latin America and most Asian territories.

Jackie Chan, fresh off of impressing audiences in Martin Campbell’s The Foreigner, stars in the Zhang’s sophomore effort which centers on a hardened special forces agent who fends off a criminal gang whilst in protection of a young woman with whom he feels a deeper connection. The news comes just as Chan has already made landfall at the American Film Market ahead of the production of director Vash’s new action adventure fantasy, Knight Of Shadows.

Bleeding Steel joins Chan with Taiwanese star Show Lo, actor Callan Mulvey (Captain America: The Winter Soldier) and actress Tess Haubrich (Alien: Covenant), and actresses Nana Ouyang (To The Fore) and newcomer Erica Xia-Hou.

The Hollywood Reporter reports that Swen Group president Murray Lipnik sealed the deal alongside Endeavor Content on behalf of WME-IMG China with Ellen Eliasoph representing the producers at the table.

“We are thrilled to continue our worldwide expansion strategy with this important and exciting film,” said Lipnik. “Jackie Chan remains a worldwide superstar and our partnership with WME-IMG China on this project fits perfectly into our long-term plans.”

Jackie Chan’s Sci-Fi Action Headliner BLEEDING STEEL Sells You On The Thrills You Crave

Jackie Chan’s Sci-Fi Action Headliner BLEEDING STEEL Sells You On The Thrills You Crave

Bear in mind the fact that Jackie Chan is 63 years old and he’s still doing action movies. Say what you will about any number of his recent titles – some of which I might agree to regarding lackluster delivery, his latest upcoming return to the screen with Martin Campbell’s revenge thriller, The Foreigner, has done plenty in ginning up excitement among loyal Chan fans waiting to see the honorary Award-winning action legend back in his element.

The movie opens in Asia later this month and in the U.S. in October, and for this, the same hype might even be applicable given what we’re now being handed in the latest full trailer for Leo Zhang’s new sci-fi actioner, Bleeding Steel which opens in December. Zhang’s script here sees Chan in the role of a hardened special forces agent on the run from a sinister criminal gang, protecting a young woman with whom he feels a certain connection.

Village Roadshow Pictures Asia and Heyi Pictures co-produced and co-financed the pic which also casts Taiwanese actor and singer Show Lo and actress Nana Ouyoung with Callan Mulvey, Tess Haubrich and Damien Garvey also starring. Of course, results remain pending on the film, but Chan gets thrown right in the mix with some big, explosive action and stunts that sell it pretty hard here. It aims to please.

Check it out.

Feel The Pulse In The New Teaser For Jackie Chan Sci-Fi Actioner, BLEEDING STEEL

We don’t have much to go by with the first official teaser for the new Jackie Chan action starrer, Bleeding Steel. The footage does, though, get a few points with some albeit fancy VFX to accomodate the brief appearance of our main actor atop the Sydney Opera House along with another performer in a likely fight scene that’s been teased once or twice in Australian news media.

The film marks Leo Zhang’s second movie and one that may prove much more prolific as well with Chan in the role of a hardened special forces agent on the run from a sinister criminal gang, protecting a young woman with whom he feels a certain connection. Village Roadshow Pictures Asia and Heyi Pictures co-produced and co-financed the pic which also casts Taiwanese actor and singer Show Lo and actress Nana Ouyoung with Callan Mulvey, Tess Haubrich and Damien Garvey also starring.

December 22 is the date for its China release at current so we’ll see what plans are in store from here on. Check out the teaser!
