Martial arts superstar Donnie Yen has been keeping busy. He’s got The Monkey King and Iceman 3D coming out soonish, there’s the Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon sequel shooting next year, and there’s still talk about Ip Man 3D. On top of all that, there’s Special ID, a gritty crime thriller that looks absolutely badass.
Just feast your eyes on this first trailer for Special ID. Rather than rely on cheesy effects shots, thumping music, and too much BWAAAM, Special ID makes an impact through crazy-ass stuntwork and a nice mix of silence and sound. The film will feature fights with Ken Lo (Drunken Master II) and Andy On (The Lost Bladesman, New Police Story), but the highlight will be a battle between Yen and Colin Chou. Yen and Chou’s previous one-on-one in Flash Point is easily one of Donnie Yen’s best fights.
A teaser poster for Special ID is in the gallery. Special ID will open in China in October. We’ll keep you posted on any international release plans.
