“Tiger’s Trigger” Theatrical Poster
A match made in kung fu movie heaven? Korean martial arts stars Casanova Wong (City Ninja, South Shaolin vs. North Shaolin) and Won Jin (The Suspect, Operation Scorpio) are teaming up for Lee Gang Wook’s Tiger’s Trigger, which is due for a domestic release in March this year.
Very little is known about the film, but one thing is definite: It’ll be the first time the two will share the screen as leads (set photo).
Won Jin marked himself as a legend of kung fu cinema when he appeared in Operation Scorpio. In the film, he showed amazing physical dexterity and flexibility with kicks that seemed to defy gravity – and let’s not forget his famous “scorpion stance”, hence his nickname “The Scorpion King”.
But for old school kung fu fans, Casanova Wong (Enter the Invincible Hero) is where the money is at. Perhaps best known for appearing alongside Sammo Hung in Warrior’s Two, Wong is known for his crazy spin kicks, which earned him the label “The Human Tornado”.
Does this mean a potential “The Scorpion King” vs “The Human Tornado”? If you haven’t already, watch the Trailer below to find out! =)
Ohhh shoot! Wong is Back! Thanks for the news, excited to see this one. By the Way, we need an Operation Scorpion Blu-Ray release.
