![]() ![]() Surya Pratap Singh on Stay as far away from the stair way as possible! Don’t miss the New Trailer for Alan Canvan’s ‘Game of Death Redux’ When will the movie come? Will it be available on CDs or OTT platforms. ![]() We’ll keep you posted as Sleeping Dogs progresses. Sleeping Dogs is a lot more synonymous with Yen’s Hong Kong-style of filming than what’s described in its plot. Asian film expert/producer Mike Leeder ( Ultimate Justice) was responsible for voice casting Sleeping Dogs when the game was known as its preliminary title True Crime: Hong Kong. Leeder also produced/coordinated the game’s live-action trailer (see video below) with late actor/martial artist Darren Shahlavi ( Kickboxer: Vengeance, Ip Man 2), who choreographed the action. The movie based on an action video game is set in Hong Kong and focuses on martial arts fighting, racing, boat chases… and shooting while doing all of that (via Deadline). Sleeping Dogs follows an undercover police officer (Yen) on a mission to take down one of the most powerful and dangerous criminal organizations in the world: the notorious Triads. “I am excited to start preparing for the next challenge,” he said (via Variety). Since then, news about Sleeping dogs was off and on, but now, Yen recently re-confirmed his participation in the film, posting a video of himself busting a few warm-up moves at the gym and writing that he is “aiming to make another breakthrough movie.” He will star as main character Wei Shen, an undercover police officer who infiltrates the Hong Kong triads. Over 3 years ago, it was reported that the Hong Kong superstar would be starring in a film adaptation of Square Enix’s hit video game Sleeping Dogs, produced by Neal Moritz ( Fast and Furious franchise). Considering Donnie Yen’s ( Chasing the Dragon, Kung Fu Jungle) involvement in two high-profile Hollywood projects ( xXx: Return of Xander Cage, Star Wars: Rogue One), it was inevitable that he would sooner, rather than later, headline his own Hollywood film. ![]()
