THE WHITE STORM 3: HEAVEN OR HELL International Ultimate Trailer Arrives Ahead Of Thursday Premieres
We’re at the final leg of the current campaign for the international releases of The White Storm 3: Heaven Or Hell from CMC Pictures. A new “ultimate” trailer is now out this week as the film readies to hit screens in North America, Australia, New Zealand and the UK on July 20, on the same day of Louis Koo’s on-hand intro of the film’s NA premiere at the Walter Reade Theater for the New York Asian Film Festival. Here are the programming notes via NYAFF:
Genre maestro Herman Yau follows his highly successful showstopper The White Storm 2: Drug Lords (NYAFF 2019) with this even more hyperbolic and gritty entry in the gonzo super-cops vs. crazy crooks series. Hong Kong movie legends Louis Koo, Aaron Kwok, and Sean Lau appear together for the first time on the big screen. Yau ups the ante, setting the action in the notorious Golden Triangle and delving deeper into the moral dilemmas of his archetypal characters. Kwok plays Cheung, an undercover cop who infiltrates a drug cartel led by a notorious Thai drug lord (Lau). In classic heroic bloodshed fashion, the two develop a bond of brotherhood. Cheung’s only hope to escape the treacherous jungle region and his ambiguous morality is to somehow contact the superintendent of the Hong Kong Narcotics Bureau (Koo), who has solemnly sworn to save Cheung and demolish the cartel once and for all.
Standby tickets will be made available for those in NYC. The same goes for folks living in Montréal where the film will have its Canadian Premiere for the 27th edition of Fantasia this summer. All others are welcome to hit their local cinemas wherever the film is screening!
