Johnnie To will unleash more triad violence in ‘Election 3′ Posted: 16 Mar 2016 12:04 AM PDT "Election 3" Teaser Poster Johnnie To (Fulltime Killer, Office), one of the most diverse directors in the world, is currently wrapping up the script for Election 3, the 3rd part of his popular Election series. To has been brainstorming Election 3 since 2013 (it was originally planned for 2015), so we can only expect another solid story that dovetails into The Godfather-esque levels of criminal scheming and machinations. According to THR, To is considering whether Louis Koo will return: “The script is rather long right now; I haven't decided which section will be used… If I use the later section, Koo might not be in it.” Election 3 is expected to shoot in 2018. Stay tuned!

More kung fu awaits with Yuen Woo-ping’s ‘Hand Over Fist’ Posted: 16 Mar 2016 12:00 AM PDT "Magnificent Butcher" Hong Kong Theatrical Poster There’s just no stopping director/legendary choreographer Yuen Woo-ping (Magnificent Butcher). Hot on the heels of his recent high profile projects – Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon: Sword of Destiny and Ip Man 3 – Yuen is getting ready to start yet another martial arts project titled Hand Over Fist. According to THR, Hand Over Fist is the tale of a 600-year-long feud between ancient rival kung fu masters that draws modern Hong Kong protagonists into the action. No further details are available at this time. In addition to Hand Over Fist, Yuen also has his hands busy with Miracle Fighters, a remake of a supernatural kung fu film he directed in 1982. As for Yuen’s Vigilantes: The Lost Order (his The Matrix meets Wall Street flick)… let’s just say it’s put on hold indefinitely, which is probably a good thing. We’ll keep you updated on Hand Over Fist as we hear more!
