By this point Yuen Woo-Ping's True Legend should need no introduction. A return to the director's chair after more than a decade long absence for the legendary fight choreographer, True Legend is a fusion of the old and new. The story is based on a classic figure from martial arts folklore - Beggar Su - the cast a blend of classic stars - Gordon Liu and Michelle Yeoh - and new school - Jay Chou and MMA fighter Cung Le. And, perhaps of the most interest, Yuen here fuses classic Hong Kong fight styles with 3D photography. Yes, True Legend is a full-on 3D fight film.
We ran the first proper trailer for this a week or so back and now we're proud to be the first to bring you a set of six impressive character teasers. Each of these focuses on some different character in the picture - the first dedicated to Yuen himself, appropriately enough - and each showcasing some element of the 3D work. There is some truly incredible stuff in these ... the tunnel jumping in the first one particularly impresses. I can't figure out any way they could have gotten that shot other than actually doing it unassisted but I just don't see how that's physically possible. Check them out below!
