“Chocolate” Japanese DVD Cover
Filmmakers Nonthakorn Thaweesuk (Muay Thai Giant, Monkey Twins) and Senzo Zindela (The Right) are sharing the director’s chair for Red Cargo, an upcoming Thai production starring martial arts stars JeeJa Yanin (Chocolate, Hard Target 2) and Dan Chupong (Vengeance of an Assassin, Dynamite Warrior).
According to Zindela, here’s what you can expect from this South African-set actioner: Zulu and Thailand cultures clash when the son of Lion slayer, Senzo, confronts a dangerous Thailand con man. Vitaya controls rhino poaching business and illegal diamond mines in the region, but everything goes wrong when a local boy steals one of his rhino horns…
Red Cargo also stars Osas Ighodaro Ajibade (Cadillac Records), Israel Makoe (Beyond the River), Zozeen Panyanut Jirarottanakasem (Monkey Twins), Sumret Muengput (BKO: Bangkok Knockout) and Siyabonga Melongisi Shibe (Human Cargo).
Shooting is expected to to start in June. Until then, be on the lookout for JeeJa Yanin’s appearance in the all-star martial arts spectacle Triple Threat, which opens later this year.
