Anyone who went and saw Well Go USA’s theatrical release of Kung Fu Killer last month likely caught a glimpse at a trailer for their forthcoming delivery of Jackie Chan‘s most recent gritty installation of one of his most popular film franchises to date, Police Story: Lockdown. Directed by Ding Sheng who will be helming Chan‘s next big action comedy entreé, Roaring Tigers, the film initially gained prominence in China under its Police Story 2013 iteration having released two years ago, but the film is finally making its way to the states with a trailer that comes just as its lead actor continues to make headlines out of Cannes.
Police Captain Zhong Wen (Jackie Chan) knows all about sacrifice. He’s always been too busy chasing bad guys to be a father to his daughter Miao (Jing Tian).
Tonight, he’s seeing her for the first time in years – and meeting her fiance, club owner Wu Jiang (Liu Ye). But Wu knows Zhong. And his plans for the evening include taking Miao, Zhong, and the entire club hostage.
Zhong knows about sacrifice. What will he give up to save his daughter?
