THE WANDERING EARTH 2 Lands In The UK And Ireland This Week From Trinity CineAsia
Folks in the UK and Ireland can now check out The Wandering Earth II in theaters from Trinity CineAsia. My review is here for anyone curious on my thoughts following its release here in the states earlier from Well Go USA, but the film has Andy Lau (House of Flying Daggers, Infernal Affairs) and Wu Jing (The Battle at Lake Changjin, Wolf Warrior) heading up the film’s cast, a wholly bankable duo that should get some butts in seats.
In the near future, the sun is rapidly expanding and will engulf the earth within 100 years. To ensure the survival of humankind, nations join hands to form an unprecedented, ambitious global project to build powerful engines on the earth’s surface and propel the planet away from impending doom.

Boasting incredible and epic visuals, this stunning interstellar blockbuster is a fresh prequel to one of the highest grossing films of all time, a $700m box office success, and Netflix global smash hit. Based on the popular novella by science fiction author Liu Cixin, The Wandering Earth II is a true sci-fi blockbuster, directed by Frant Gwo (The Sacrifice) and starring Andy Lau (House of Flying Daggers, Infernal Affairs) and Wu Jing (The Battle at Lake Changjin, Wolf Warrior).
