Teddy Chen’s Bodyguards And Assassins
Poster artwork for Director Teddy Chen’s 2009 period Martial Arts movie, Bodyguards And Assassins has now surfaced in Asia. Produced by Cinema Popular and We Pictures with Fight & Action Choreography handled by Stephen Tung Wei, the $23 million dollar film began shooting last month and will continue to the end of June. Tung Wei supervised the action sequences in Chen’s last big-budget actioner in 2000 with Jackie Chan’s The Accidental Spy and was keen to get Wei on board this time around too.
Bodyguards And Assassins is about the efforts of a group of Kung-fu experts to protect Dr. Sun Yat-sen as he leads a revolution against the Chinese Qing Dynasty. The principle cast for the film can be seen in the following “Poster Cast List” below along with on-set production pics of a certain bald Donnie Yen:
