Are your claws ready for more Tiger Cops? The Australian-produced, “80’s Hong Kong martial arts throwback” comedy series continues with Tiger Cop: Yes Madam! Australian-Vietnamese martial arts star Maria Tran (Last King of the Cross, Tracer) is back as Inspector Tiger.
This time around, Tiger (Tran) faces off against Lara Balog from Stunt Action Consultants. As with the previous Tiger Cops entries, the upcoming Tiger Cop Returns short is directed by Adrian Castro (Nightwalkers TV series), who also serves as fight choreographer for the series.
The 2017 series was based on a throwback concept inspired by Hong Kong’s Girls with Guns sub-genre made popular by titles like Royal Warriors, In the Line of Duty 3, and of course, Yes, Madam!
The Tiger Cops series featured comedian Steven Oliver (Black Comedy), Clariza Filipowski, Gemma Laurelle, Phillip Kane, Ken Wang, Graig Anderson, Khanh Trieu, Leo Fong (Killpoint) and B-movie/HK film veteran Richard Norton (Mission: Terminate). Then in 2020, came Tiger Cop: Toilet Paper Hero, which co-starred Takashi Hara (Echo 8, Ayotti) and David Hong (Echo 8).
Watch the ALL NEW Tiger Cop: Yes Madam! below, followed by the original 2015 Tiger Cops short (presented as “trailers” for Tiger Cop I and Tiger Cop II):
As usual, the 3rd one is the worst. It looks like the small clip of Maria doing similar choreography with a stunt guy was shot in a more stylish and authentic 80s flashy style.
Agree! The downgrade is noticeable!
