| ‘The Final Master’ gets new marketing for its June release! Posted: 22 Apr 2016 03:00 AM PDT  "The Final Master" Theatrical Poster United Entertainment Partners is releasing Haofeng Xu’s highly-anticipated, award-winning martial arts film, The Master, re-titled as The Final Master. Xu made a name for himself by penning the screenplay for Wong Kar-Wai’s The Grandmaster. But it was 2011′s The Sword Identity, his directorial debut, which showed Xu’s true talent. Then came his acclaimed second film, 2012′s Judge Archer (aka Arrow Arbitration). Xu’s trend in both films was presenting the martial arts in a less stylized and more realistic manner, perhaps not unlike the 2007 Japanese film Black Belt or David Mamet’s 2008 MA-themed Redbelt. Xu’s knack for realistic hand-to-hand combat in The Final Master is sure to please. The upcoming movie stars Liao Fan (Black Coal, Thin Ice, Chinese Zodiac), Song Yang (The Sword Identity), Jia Song (On His Majesty’s Secret Service), Li Xia (The White Dragon), Huang Jue (Founding of the Party) and Chin Shih-Chieh (The Brotherhood of Blades). Don’t miss the first trailer for The Final Master, which is getting a limited theatrical release on June 3rd, 2016. Updates: Feast your eyes on three new posters ( 1 | 2 | 3 ), as well as a new trailer.
