John Woo, the master of violent aesthetics, has returned to Hollywood after more than 20 years with the action film "Silent Night" last year. This year he will bring a new work again. The American version of "" directed by him and tailor-made for Hollywood officially released its first poster and trailer today. The trailer is also full of many classic elements of John Woo's movies: white pigeons flying, double... Gun showdown.
This film is a remake of John Woo's own 1989 classic "The Two Heroes". The original film starred Chow Yun-fat and Lee Xiuxian, who played a killer and a policeman respectively in the film. This film was also John Woo's early film. A classic Hong Kong film. And this time John Woo returned to Hollywood to remake his classic work, which also has the flavor of "doing as the Romans do".
In terms of actors, the killer character played by Chow Yun-fat in the original movie has changed gender and is played by Natalie Emmanuel in the American TV series "Game of Thrones" and the "Fast and Furious" series of movies, while Lee Xiuxian in the original movie The policeman played is played by Omar Sy, a black French actor from the classic movie "".
Looking at this starring cast, I just want to say one thing: John Woo still knows Hollywood very well and is full of political correctness. Of course, regardless of skin color, the acting skills of these two actors are still acceptable. I can only say that I hope to bring a good American version of "Dragon", and I won't talk about whether they can surpass it.Of course, I want to complain at the end, since the genders of the characters have been changed, can't we change the title of the film?
The film will not be released in theaters, but will be released on NBC Universal's streaming media Peacock on August 23 this year. Are you looking forward to the American version of "The Big Brother" directed by John Woo?
