I have been waiting for this news a long time, finally it has happened with Tony Jaa signing on to star in Sha Po Lang 2. The first movie starred Sammo Hung, Donnie Yen, Wu Jing and Simon Yam, it delivered on all fronts with great action from all involved. Once we get more details about any future cast, we shall let you know.
This was the official statement that was released “Jaa is thrilled to be part of this film, and you can expect some surprise appearances in the film. The action choreography is being handled by Dion Lam who was heavily involved in the stunt work on Spider Man 2. Wilson Yip remains very much involved with Terrence Cheung in the director’s chair. The film while targeted towards the China and Asian markets will also be released in the Americas, Europe and the Middle East. The collaboration represents a breakthrough effort in Chinese film making between a non-Chinese action star and an all star Chinese line up. The film will be shot in Thailand, China and Hong Kong. The story is an action/drama that should keep the audience very much on the edge of their seats.
Sun Entertainment will release more complete information shortly, and will update on a regular basis. Shooting begins in early Spring of 2014”.
I really enjoyed the first movie and have wanted a second for a long time, so this is one movie i shall be watching first chance i get.
