Are your claws ready for more Tiger Cops? The Australian-produced “80’s Hong Kong martial arts throwback” comedy series continues with Tiger Cop: Project A. Martial arts star Maria Tran (Last King of the Cross, Tracer) is back as Inspector Tiger!
This time around, Tiger goes head-to-head with B-movie/HK film veteran Richard Norton (City Hunter, Mission: Terminate). As with the previous Tiger Cop entries, the upcoming Tiger Cop: Project A short is directed by Adrian Castro (Nightwalkers TV series), who also serves as fight choreographer for the series.
The series is 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 and Leo Fong (Killpoint). Then in 2020, came Tiger Cop: Toilet Paper Hero, which co-starred Takashi Hara (Echo 8, Ayotti), David Hong (Echo 8) and Lara Balog from Stunt Action Consultants.

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!
