At 54 years old, the Hong Kong action star of John Woo’s The Killer and Hard-Boiled is still ready to kick some tail. Chow Yun-Fat is following his starring role in Mei Hu’s Confucius with a turn in Jiang Wen’s $18 million picture Let the Bullets Fly.
Slated for a Fall 2010 release, Let the Bullets Fly will co-star Jiang and Yun-Fat, and is described as a “comic Western legend” that “contains elements of a thriller, with suspense and black humor.” I’m all for it, especially with a poster like that one.
According to Variety, the script for the film was just finalized two days ago, after undergoing nine rewrites that altered the ending of the film 10 times. That’s a lot of work to finesse a script that no one has any details on just yet.
However, keep your eye on AtomicPopcorn.net for updates as Jiang Wen’s film develops into next year.
