“Bodies at Rest” Chinese Theatrical Poster
Renny Harlin, noted Hollywood film director known for his 90’s blockbusters Die Hard 2 and Cliffhanger, is getting ready to unleash Bodies at Rest (aka Witness), an upcoming thriller starring Nick Cheung (Keeper of the Darkness, The White Storm), Richie Jen (Trivisa) and Yang Zi (Death and Glory in Changde).
Bodies at Rest (read our review) sees a forensics expert and his intern assistant ready to call it a day in the morgue when a group of masked thugs break in. The thugs demand access to a body that contains evidence to a crime they recently committed (via Variety).
Following 2016’s Skiptrace (with Jackie Chan and Johnny Knoxville) and Legend of the Ancient Sword (with Leehom Wang), Bodies at Rest marks the 3rd Chinese production for Harlin.
Bodies at Rest opens domestically August 15th, 2019. Don’t miss the film’s Newest Trailer below:
