Finally slating a December release, Shock Wave 2 will mark the latest pairing for respective actor/director duo Andy Lau and Herman Yau who worked together on the inaugural 2017 crime thriller, which boasts earnings of up to $63 million dollars at the China box office.
Legendary actor Kurata Yasuaki makes his latest reunion with Chan here as the leader of the Matsura clan, Kumasawa, next to the Daimyo’s son, Yamagawa, played by Koide Keisuke. Kumasawa’s methods are of a matter of study from a long career of war with wisdom earned as a result, knowing not to underestimate his enemy unlike his cohorts, including Yamagawa who, despite his quiet resolve and stoic devotion to the samurai code, finds himself questioning Kumasawa’s logic to almost no avail.
