STUNTMAN Review: Old School, New Rules, Lasting Reward
Stuntman opens in UK and Irish cinemas on October 11. I’ve been able to see nearly twenty of the films involving actor and action choreographer Tung Wai. Nowadays, I and a plethora of Hong Kong movie aficionados familiar with his work can include his latest starring role in Stuntman, an ode to the legacy of dauntless stunt professionals in film and television, including and namely those in the city where chance moments to revive the bygone era of action cinema are otherwise at times fleeting. It is a struggle accentuated accordingly by Herbert Leung and Albert Leung, stunt professionals themselves who’ve since taken the mantle for their directorial debut. To add, the casting is spruced up with the likes of actor and stunt and action multi-hyphenate Tung for the lead role alongside fellow frontmen Terrence Lau and Philip Ng, both back for another row on the screen since going toe-to-toe […]
STUNTMAN Official Trailer Revealed For The Leung Brothers’ New Action Drama
Plans for a select screenings are underway in Hong Kong with the upcoming release of Stuntman, the new riveting filmmaking drama from directing duo Herbert and Albert Leung.

If you love Hong Kong cinema as much as the next fan, then chances are you’ve definitely seen some of the compelling documentaries over the years, which is why this film’s tagline might read a little familiar, particularly if you’ve seen documentatian John Wei’s work. At any rate, Stuntman will also make its way around the festivals following its regional releases. This especially goes for anyone lining up for seats for this year’s 44th edition […]
STUNTMAN Takes Drama To New Heights In The First Teaser
Benefitting as one of several titles supported by the Hong Kong Film Development Council’s First Feature Film Initiative, the ceremony continues for Hong Kong filmgoers as we now look toward Stuntman, which opens in theaters on September 26 from Edko Films. Stuntman stars Terrence Lau and renowned action director Stephen Tung, along with Philip Ng and Cecilia Choi, and is helmed by Albert Leung, and Herbert Leung, expanding on a shortfilm conceived a decade earlier which they wrote and directed. As Screendaily noted in its coverage back in the Spring during the Hong Kong Asian Film Festival, Stuntman centers on “a once-famous stunt director who pursues a comeback but disrupts the relationship with his daughter in the process.” Stuntman also reunites a few of its actors with producer Angus Chan (Twilight Of The Warriors: Walled In). The teaser launched just over half a day ago. Check it out below! “In […]
