“Operation Red Sea” Chinese Theatrical Poster
Director Dante Lam (Operation Mekong) has been reliably turning out hard-hitting films that have helped expand the scope of the action/thriller genre in Hong Kong – and his next film, The Rescue, mega-budget thriller about a sea rescue during a typhoon – will continue the tradition.
Now, Lam has announced plans for Operation Red Sea 2, the sequel to his 2018 box office smash, Operation Red Sea (read our review). According to AFS, there’s a possibility that the sequel will start production next year. There is currently no indication if any of the cast members from the first film will return for the sequel, but we’ll keep you posted as we learn more.
Operation Red Sea is currently available on Blu-ray & DVD from Well Go USA.
“There is currently no indication if any of the cast members from the first film will return for the sequel”
Operation Red Sea didn’t have ‘cast members’ so much as ‘cannon fodder’. 😛
Well, they could make Jiang Luxia the star if they wanted something unique.
I’m absolutely in for anything that continues the story — continuation or a new yarn.
