Up and coming martial arts star Tiger Chen (aka Chen Hu) – who gained some fame in Keanu Reeves’ debut film Man of Tai Chi – is set to star in an action film simply titled Impulse. There’s some speculation regarding the film’s unknown plot, which may or may not be a sequel to Man of Tai Chi. As of now, no director or other cast members have been announced.
Impulse is written by Richard Ronat and is being produced by Daxing Zhang (Red Cliff, Man of Tai Chi), Justin Begnaud (The Unknown Caller) and Jonathan Lim (2013’s My Lucky Star) of China’s Crimson Forest Entertainment, who had this to say:
“Tiger is an amazingly talented Martial Arts star, and we are excited to cast him in our film… we are confident that the film will have a stellar cast to complement an action-packed plot line that will resonate with audiences on a global scale.”
We’ll keep you posted on this project.
