Fans of the Young And Dangerous roster may surely get a kick out of the purposeful reunion now seen in Chin Kar-Lok’s long-awaited return at the helm, Golden Job. It’s very much a heartfelt heist drama from start to finish, peppered with just a few of slight-of-hand whodunit-isms to bookend the essential action sequences that makes films like these so entertaining.
Well Go USA went three for three on Wednesday with upcoming theatrical announcements. From the looks of things, they’re readying to conquer next month even further with a September 28 date officially slated for Chin Kar-Lok’s new heist adventure, Golden Job.
At long last, the latest ceremonial reunion of stars – here from the Young And Dangerous franchise – now brings us back to the fold with director Chin Kar-Lok’s newest heist adventure, Golden Job. The first official teaser trailer came Thursday, staking claim with stylish and well-executed action to inaugurate the tale of an ex-mercenary who rejoins his team of thieves to get even after being double-crossed by one of their own a year earlier.
Inspired by a 2010 webcomic of the same name, 2018 has already begun looking spiffy with Kim Yong-Hwa poised for the December 22 release of the new movie, Along With The Gods: The Two Worlds. The film is the first of a two-part venture and here with actor Cha Tae-Hyun starring as a firefighter deployed to conquer seven afterlife trials with the guidance of three guardians to seek his right to reincarnation. Also starring are Ha Jung-Woo, Ju Ji-Hoon, Kim Hyang-Gi and Lee Jung-Jae with Well Go USA further extending the film’s big screen availability throughout North America on January 5.
Mysteriously when the production of Black Water commenced, the director’s name was left a total mystery until it was finally revealed to be Pasha Patriki who has lensed and produced a nunber of titles – Allen Ungar’s Gridlocked and Justin McConnell’s Broken Mile to name a few. He now helms the latest pairing of two major action stars who need no introduction, for the story of an imprisoned deep cover operative who pairs up with others to fight his way out of a CIA Blacksite aboard a retrofitted nuclear submarine. No dates have yet been made as of this write up.
Believe it or not, a 2018 date is being targeted at present for Wolf Warrior 3. This is only according to a few sites as this could just be fan anxiety with a 2019 date being the actual mark, but a third one is definitely in tow per the announcement seen in this year’s explosive sequel from action star Jacky Wu Jing. The film led a roaring wave of popular nationalist titles from China scoring a major box office hit, now leaving to question if a third time really is a charm… We’ll see in due time!
Good times, eh? ?
From dream passion project to film festival reality, Jesse Haaja’s milestone Finnish superhero thriller, Rendel, is well on the path toward a wider release that will extend to North America. Rendel, now open in Finalnd, takes place in fictitious Finnish city of Mikkeli, now ground zero for one man’s all-out war against a courrpt powerful drug company, fending off corporate acolytes and mercenaries alike. Actor Kristofer Gummerus leads the cast with Rami Rusinen, Matti Onnismaa, Alina Tomnikov, Bianca Bradley and Sheila Shah also starring for the film’s U.S. rollout early next year.
A reunion of several stars from the Young And Dangerous franchise, director Chin Kar-Lok joins Ekin Cheng, Jordan Chan, Michael Tse and Jerry Lamb for Golden Job. Co-star Eric Tsang is also producing the film which centers on a former mercenary who sets out to get even a year after being double-crossed by one of their own. There’s no release date yet but the film is in post-production.
