Tai Chi Hero, the sequel to Stephen Fung's goofy martial arts comedy,
Tai Chi Zero, opens in Hong Kong this coming Thursday, which has prompted local distributors Intercontinental Films to release seven new character posters for the film. These new images seem pretty intent on moving away from the film's comedic roots and into more serious martial arts territory. While this is accurate to some degree -
Hero is certainly more straight-laced than
Zero - it's still a far cry from the po-faced imagery here. That said, they do look pretty cool in their own right. Check them out below.
