Chow Yun-fat returns to crime in the new ‘Cold War II’ trailer Posted: 14 Mar 2016 02:50 AM PDT First-time directors Longman Leung and Sunny Luk scored a major hit a few years ago with their Hong Kong cop thriller Cold War. The relatively inexperienced duo managed to attract a big name cast, including Tony Leung Ka-Fai and Aaron Kwok, to the film based on the strength of their screenplay. Well, every good crime saga deserves a sequel, which is why Cold War II is right around the corner! This time around, Chow Yun-fat (Office), who reportedly called Cold War one of the best Hong Kong films since Infernal Affairs, joins the gang. Cold War II also stars Aaron Kwok (Monk Comes Down the Mountain), Tony Leung Ka Fai (The Raid), Kenny Wong Tak Bun (Fire of Conscience) and Tony Yang Kam Tin (The Crossing). The film hits Chinese theaters on July 8th. Until then, watch the film’s 1st trailer (via AFS). |
