Rough-Cut Trailer For Sammo Hung's CHOY LEE FUT

In many Martial arts films, the showcasing of a particular style is a staple of the genre.  The most recent examples that comes to mind is Wing Chun in Ip Man 1 & 2 and Silat in Merantau.  For Sammo Hung's upcoming actioner, the style being showcase is Choy Lee Fut, a southern Chinese form of Kung-fu.  Beside Hung playing a master of the art, the cast include Sammy Hung, Kane Kosugi, Yuen Wah, Lau Kar-Wing, Ian Powers and Sam Wong with special appearance by Dennis To.  Former Jackie Chan Stunt Team member Sam Wong also served as co-director and fight choreographer.

The story revolves around two best friends in Europe (played by real-life best friends Sammy Hung and Kane Kosugi) who love martial arts. They are Hung Gar exponents after learning the art from Hung's father (Sammo Hung). When they want to learn other forms of martial arts, they head off to China in an attempt to learn the art of Choy Li Fut Kung Fu. Kosugi's character wants to learn the art because his grandfather was once defeated by a female exponent of the art and wanted to learn but never had the chance to. When the duo head to China, they learn that the Choy Li Fut school is being challenged by a rival school. Hung and Kosugi enter a martial arts tournament to save the future of the school.

Its set for release later this year.  You'll find the rough-cut trailer and raw footage embedded below.
