‘Wolf Warrior’, ‘Paradox’ Actor Chris Collins Joins IP MAN 4
Casting further continues for the current production of Ip Man 4 this week as actor Chris Collins has joined the cast. Character details are unknown whilst following suit with fellow Wolf Warrior co-star, actor and martial arts star Scott Adkins who signaled his addition to the film once again starring martial arts action star Donnie Yen.
Produced by Raymond Wong from a script by Edmund Wong, the folkloric period martial arts drama sequel inspired by the life and legend of the late Wing Chun Grandmaster now sees him traveling stateside to the U.S. where his Wing Chun protégé, Bruce Lee, has begun challenging the norms of not allowing Westerners to learn martial arts. Kidari Entertainment is distributing the film locally.
Collins is a former U.S. Marine, now based in Hong Kong where he trains and instructs with specialities in martial arts and firearms. The Wolf Warrior co-star can be seen last taking on Tony Jaa in Wilson Yip’s SPL spin-off, Paradox, which is now available in the U.S. courtesy of Well Go USA, as well as the current theatrical release of Nick Cheung’s crime thriller, The Trough.
Ok, so I can finally announce that I am working on Ip Man 4. I am so excited to be working with such a legend as Donnie Yen. I have Always been a huge fan and to finally be able to learn from him in his iconic role is a dream come true for me. An amazing martial artist with a scientific approach to cinematic action and of course a family man. #ipman #ipman4 #donnieyen #hongkong #hk #hkig #martialarts #kungfu #wingchun #wingtsun #hkwta #actionmovie #movies #superstar #legend #china #sifuchriscollinsA post shared by chris collins (@sifuchriscollins) on May 8, 2018 at 1:14am PDT
