"Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon: Sword of Destiny" Novelization

Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon: Sword of Destiny (aka Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon II: The Green Destiny), the sequel to Ang Lee’s martial arts epic, will be premiering simultaneously on both Netflix and theaters on the first quarter of 2016.

Yuen Woo-ping (True Legend) is directing a script by John Fusco (The Forbidden Kingdom), which will be based off the fifth book in Wang Du Lu's Crane-Iron Pentalogy – the same source material Ang Lee used for the original film. Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon: Sword of Destiny will be headlined by Donnie Yen (Kung Fu Jungle) and Michelle Yeoh (Yes, Madam).

Other stars include Nicholas Tse (As the Lights Go Out), Harry Shum Jr. (Revenge of the Green Dragons), Jason Scott Lee (Dragon: The Bruce Lee Story), Veronica Ngo (The Rebel), Chris Pang (Fist of the Dragon), Darryl Quon (Arrow), Roger Yuan (Once Upon A Time in Vietnam) and Eugenia Yuan (The Drummer).

Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon: Sword of Destiny will continue to revolve around Yu Shu Lien (Yeoh). "This was an opportunity to explore a lifelong passion I've had for Wu Xia, and if there wasn't continuing source material, I would never have gotten involved," says Fusco.

Updates: Photos of Donnie Yen preparing himself for the sequel. | First official photos from the production, featuring Donnie Yen and Michelle Yeoh. | Details (and new photos: 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 ) have emerged regarding Veronica Ngo’s (aka Thanh Van Ngo) character. According to vnexpress.net, Ngo will play the part of an assassin named Mantis, the right hand woman of the film’s main villain, Iron Crow, played by Roger Yuan.
