Trailer: Justin Lin's HOLLYWOOD ADVENTURES Primed For Fast & Furious Business, In China At Least
Justin Lin, the Taiwan-born director of Fast & Furious instalments 3 through 6, has been hard at work steering his Chinese language debut - the US-set, star-studded action comedy Hollywood Adventures to the screen. Lin writes and produces the film, which stars Huang Xiaoming, Tong Dawei and Vicky Zhao Wei, as well as F&F's Sung Kang, and a host of cameos from the likes of Missi Pyle and Stephen Tobolowsky. In the director's chair is Timothy Kendall, whose prominent credits appear to be directing episodes of TV shows like The Book Club and Dick Fowler, PI

The plot centres around Yu Ming (Huang), who heads to Los Angeles to propose to his girlfriend (Sarah Li). Along the way he inadvertently teams up with another Chinese tourist (Tong) and a travel guide (Zhao), and get mixed up in an illegal import business masterminded by the evil Manny Love (Kang).

Hollywood Adventures is due for release in China on 26 June, and in Hong Kong in August, and considering the A-list cast, popularity of the Fast & Furious franchise, and zany, high-energy tone of the film (judging from the trailer at any rate), this could prove a notable hit with Chinese audiences. Whether or not it will fare as well with western viewers - or if indeed it will even get a release outside of Asia - remains to be seen.

Check out the trailer below.
