| ‘Ip Man 3′ opening on Christmas… trailer coming this month! Posted: 07 Sep 2015 04:00 AM PDT  "Ip Man" Korean Theatrical Poster Ip Man 3 has finished filming – in 3D! Star Donnie Yen will return in the titular role, alongside director Wilson Yip. This time around, Ip Man’s most famous pupil – Bruce Lee – is set to have a much larger role in the story. "What is certain is that the film will begin with Bruce Lee becoming Ip Man's disciple,” says screenwriter Edmond Wong. Producer Raymond Wong claims the film will feature a much larger budget than the previous two films, with special 3D effects incorporated into the fight scenes, courtesy of the legendary Yuen Woo Ping. So far, here’s what you can expect from the cast: Lyn Hung (Ip Man), Zhang Han (The Taking of Tiger Mountain), Max Zhang (The Grandmaster), Patrick Tam You Man (Purple Storm), Karena Ng (Kung Fu Angels), Kent Cheng (Flash Point), Louis Cheung (Legend is Born – Ip Man), Mike Tyson (The Hangover) and Leung Kar Yan (The Postman Strikes Back). Update: In addition to Ip Man 3, here’s a list of titles Yen is currently working on: Iceman 2 (post-production), The Master (pre-production), Dragon City (pre-production) and Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon 2 (post-production) and Noodle Man, his first starring role in a U.S. production. | Here's what Yen told Flicks and the City: "It's [Ip Man 3] going to be my last time around playing Ip Man. I think the fans have been waiting for quite a few years. And I kind of didn't want to take on this role again, and I was onto experimenting with different characters, different roles, until I'm ready. And now, I feel like I'm ready, so we'll see. I'll try do the best I can. And hopefully I can top the first two." Click here to watch the Tyson vs. Yen promo. And just when the Ip Man 3 updates couldn’t get any more interesting: the unnamed actor portraying Bruce Lee will be laced with CGI enhancements to bring Lee’s on-screen image alive. | Bruce Lee Enterprises, LLC (BLE) is seeking to stop the icon’s image from appearing in Ip Man 3. BLE’s COO, Kris Storti, stated that the estate is “justifiably shocked” to learn that the image of Bruce Lee in Ip Man 3 is “completely unauthorized.” The producers of Ip Man 3 have the cooperation of Robert Lee, Bruce Lee’s brother; however, BLE contended that “Robert Lee does not own or control any intellectual property rights associated with Bruce Lee, including, without limitation, any rights to Bruce Lee's name, likeness and image.” In the meantime, Ip Man 3 producer, Raymond Wong, says the matter will be handled by lawyers. | First set images of Donnie Yen and Yuen Woo Ping in Ip Man 3. | First official still of Donnie Yen in Ip man 3.
