RELEASE DATE: May 17, 2011
Directed by Prachya Pinkaew (Ong Bak, Tom Yum Goong), Elephant White revolves around an assassin who is hired by a businessman to avenge the murder of his daughter by white slave traders in Thailand.
It stars Kevin Bacon (Death Sentence), Djimon Hounsou (Blood Diamond) and Jirantanin Pitakporntrakul. This is Prachya Pinkaew’s first U.S. produced film; it’s supposedly action packed, though who knows how much of it is martial arts? If there isn’t any thai action, don’t be tagging the poster “From the Director of Ong Bak,” because I sure as hell don’t know any memorable quotes from Ong Bak.
