Honk Kong’s Donnie Yen is known worldwide for his role in the martial arts action film Ip Man. The actor-fighter is known for his exceptional skills and stunt choreography and has starred not just in Chinese films, but also in American films such as Shanghai Nights, XXX: Return of Xander Cage, and more recently in John Wick: Chapter 4.
While Yen played a blind warrior named Caine in John Wick 4, it was not the first time that he played a blind warrior in an American film. He previously starred in Gareth Edwards’ Star Wars spinoff Rogue One: A Star Wars Story, in which he played Chirrut Îmwe, a warrior who is part of the Guardians of the Whills. The idea to make him blind was reportedly Yen’s.

Conor McGregor vs. Dwayne Johnson: Who Cashed the Bigger Check?
Did Conor McGregor really set a world record with his Road House payday? That’s what the onetime UFC superstar has been bragging about in recent weeks, claiming he’s now “the highest paid first-time actor of all time.” If true — and McGregor, 35, hasn’t disclosed how much he got for his debut role in Amazon’s reboot of the 1989 kickboxing flick — he would beat Dwayne Johnson’s record of $5.5 million for 2002’s Scorpion King. While some have scoffed at his claim, sources indicate he was indeed paid in that ballpark, and given the Irishman’s stature in the martial arts world and the offers he has turned down (he accepted a role opposite Vin Diesel in 2017’s xXx: Return of Xander Cage, only to back out before filming began) it wouldn’t be surprising if some sort of record was broken.

Nina Dobrev has had a great career, being the lead on The Vampire Diaries for an amazing six seasons while also appearing in movies like Let’s Be Cops, the Flatliners remake and more. Yet, she’s never gotten to test her mettle as an action heroine, with her regulated to mostly non-fighting roles in films like XXX: The Return of Xander Cage. That all changes with Renny Harlin’s The Bricklayer, in which she plays a CIA analyst sent on a mission to Greece, where she’s supposed to keep an eye on the agency’s most notorious hitman, Aaron Eckhart’s Steve Vail, as he chases down a rogue agent (Clifton Collins Jr) who’s been killing journalists. While initially at odds, it doesn’t take long for the two to team up, giving Dobrev a solid chance to show off her action chops.

Vin Diesel is a man of many franchises, some of which he himself has spearheaded. Alongside the hugely popular Fast & Furious, those franchises include the Pitch Black and XxX film series, the latter of which began his action star career. The initial 2002 film saw Xander Cage (Diesel) as an extreme sports enthusiast and rebellious stuntman working as a superspy for the National Security Agency, which tasked him to infiltrate a terrorist organization. The third film in the trilogy came in 2017’s xXx: The Return of Xander Cage, which saw Diesel return to the enter stage following the unsuccessful 2005 sequel starring Ice Cube. The Return of Xander Cage made over $346 million worldwide off a $85 million budget. Although a fourth film was announced by Diesel and director D.J. Caruso with The H Collective and Diesel’s own One Race Films production company, there’s currently a lawsuit preventing the movie from going forward.

Moving forward, Disney will try to make fewer, cheaper movies while “focus[ing] on improving the quality of our films,” Bob Iger promised analysts on a recent earnings call. While Iger has made promises to Wall Street about this before, it’s an issue that has raised alarm bells over the course of the summer as a slew of Hollywood tentpoles have failed to become profit-gushing blockbusters, in part due to their exorbitant budgets.
The likes of “Fast X,” “Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny,” “The Little Mermaid” and “Transformers: Rise of the Beasts” ended up costing so much above the norm — at least in relation to their likely theatrical revenue — that they may not make money (or produce sequels) even with objectively decent box office.
Tom Cruise’s “Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning Part One” is on track to take in just $165 million domestically and $550 million globally despite strong reviews and solid buzz.

Indian filmmaker Nag Ashwin unveiled the first look of his sci-fi film “Kalki 2898 Ad” (working title “Project-k”) to cheers and applause at the San Diego Comic-Con in July.
Ashwin was joined by two members of the cast — Prabhas (“Baahubali”) and Kamal Haasan (“Vishwaroopam”).
In an interview with Et Canada, Ashwin described a sense of relief after sharing the first glimpse with the world. “It feels like a bit of relief because we were doing this amongst ourselves for the past two years from the design, story and everything. So, it’s nice to share it with the world and see that they also enjoy this sort of thing. It’s good. It’s a bit of energy for all of us.”

Mr. Vin Diesel has made a name for himself playing monotone bruisers; big guys who look like they want to smash your skull in if you get in your way. But he's also a family man when it comes to the "Fast and Furious" films. He's also been a talking tree, a sci-fi warrior, a mobster, a military grunt in a Steven Spielberg movie, and more. While Diesel seems solely committed to playing Dom in the "Furious" saga these days, we shouldn't forget about his other work, some of which is quite good (and others ... not).
To get to the bottom of what Diesel's best role is, we here at /Film asked our readers to weigh in. Then we compiled the results in a special, massive supercomputer. The results may actually surprise you. They kind of surprised me! So let's take a look at Vin Diesel's best roles, starting at the bottom.

Indian movie “Kalki 2898 Ad” (working title “Project – K”) made a splash at the San Diego Comic-Con with the successful teaser and title release.
Touted to be one of India’s biggest films, “Kalki 2898 Ad” brings together a strong star cast – Kamal Haasan (Vishwarroopam” and “Vikram”), Amitabh Bachchan, Deepika Padukone and Prabhas (“Baahubali” series).
From the teaser, “Kalki 2898 Ad” appears to be set in a dystopian future “when the world is taken over by darkness”. A savior, a “force,” will rise to bring order to chaos.
"Kalki 2898 Ad”, seemingly gets its name from the final incarnation of the god Vishnu, named Kalki. According to the Hindu mythology, Kalki arrives to end the Kali Yuga, or the age of the demon, during which people suffer because of vice and misery.

Paramount Pictures has renewed a first-look deal with Todd Garner. The head of Broken Road Productions first signed a production pact with the studio in 2018.
Their only film since that time for Paramount has been “Playing With Fire,” a family-friendly Paramount Players release about a handful of macho firefighters having to look after two stranded kids amid a wildfire. The Jon Cena-led release earned $69.4 million worldwide on a $29 million budget. The company is in active development on a Rebel Wilson-starring tennis comedy titled “Double Fault.”
Among other recent projects not specifically with Paramount were New Line’s “Mortal Kombat” reboot and the direct-to-Hulu comedy “Vacation Friends,” both of which have spawned in-development sequels. Ganrer’s production track record goes back at least as far as Vin Diesel’s first “xXx” installment in the summer of 2022. That entry spawned an Ice Cube-led follow-up in 2005 and the 2017 global smash “xXx: The Return of Xander Cage...

John Wick: Chapter 4 is marking yet another chance for the West to get to know Donnie Yen, one of Asia’s top leading men. He has already been in several other major Hollywood franchises. He played the scene-stealing Force-sensitive blind master Chirrut Îmwe in Rogue One: A Star Wars Story, the lure for the Asian market role in XXX: Return of Xander Cage, and Commander Tung in the Disney live-action flop, Mulan. However, in that same period when these Hollywood films came out, Yen made 10 of his own Asian-produced films where he was the leading man.
Action films are Yen’s specialty, so Yen’s inclusion in John Wick is a perfect fit. His mother is Grandmaster Bow Sim Mark, a pioneer in the global dissemination of Wushu. Wushu is a flamboyant acrobatic style of Kung Fu, designed for competition. It’s the same style that produced Jet Li along...

John Wick: Chapter 4 is finally giving Donnie Yen some immense exposure in the U.S. The martial arts cinema legend is nearing 60 years old and has been in the business since the 80s. He has previously been seen in American productions such as Blade II, Shanghai Knights, XXX: The Return of Xander Cage, and Rogue One: A Star Wars Story. However, John Wick is the first time he’s been given a significant supporting character role as Caine, the blind assassin who is tasked to hunt down the titular character. Audiences are pretty unanimous in thinking that Yen steals the movie, and the Ip Man star speaks with Variety on where Caine might go from here.
If you’ve already seen Chapter 4, you’ve witnessed the glory that is Yen. He hasn’t slowed down one iota, which is immensely impressive for a 59-year-old. The film’s director, Chad Stahelski,...

Every great hero needs great villains, so Director Chad Stahelski stacked the deck with the world’s leading action stars when it came time to check back in to action cinema’s Continental. John Wick (Keanu Reeves) demands opponents that can match the badassery of his franchise; and real life martial artists that can act. No other director today has such a keen eye for stunts and fight choreography as Stahelski. Assembling a cast of the heaviest hitters in Hollywood is the only way John Wick: Chapter 4 could level up. For any fan of the action genre, the names of Donnie Yen, Scott Adkins, Hiroyuki Sanada, and Marko Zaror instill massive respect. They all have extensive filmographies packed with thrilling action.
The John Wick tetralogy is also Stahelski’s first directorial effort and it’s designed for action. Creating roles that spotlights the superhuman talents of his cast was a collaborative effort,...

There is not a more fearless action star on the planet than Tony Jaa. Ever since making his bone-bruising debut in the relentlessly entertaining "Ong-Bak: Muay Thai Warrior," Jaa's presence in a movie means you're in for full-tilt martial arts combat that's as punishing to film as it is exhilarating to watch.
Jaa earned the most valued seal of approval in the action filmmaking community when Jackie Chan called him "the most well-rounded of all action stars." Alas, Jaa was unable to realize the dream of acting alongside his hero in "Rush Hour 3" (which is for the best given the ghastly quality of the film), but the indestructible Thai star continues to press ever forward. His star has dimmed in recent years (e.g. he took supporting roles in Paul W.S. Anderson's "Monster Hunter" and the sci-fi Dtv effort "Jiu Jitsu"), but when you cast Tony Jaa, you...

Thousands of people from Hong Kong have signed a petition to have actor Donnie Yen removed as an Oscar presenter due to his support for the Chinese government.
The petition says that the 59-year-old actor’s latest remarks over protests in Hong Kong in 2019 “violate the spirit of freedom of speech”.
Hong Kong activist Tong Wai-hung, who set up the petition, also claims that the Academy’s invitation to Yen shows “contempt for the people of Hong Kong” and his presence will “damage the image and reputation of the film industry”.
In an interview with GQ last month, Yen reiterated his opposition to the 2019 pro-democracy protests in Hong Kong.
“It wasn’t a protest, okay, it was a riot. I’m not going to be here talking about how to change how people feel about it,” he said.
“But my own experience, like, I was there, I have many friends who were there.

Donnie Yen is one of the last great martial arts legends still doing his thing. Jackie Chan is currently exploring different types of projects, with a new comedy involving a horse and voicing Splinter in the new Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles movie Mutant Mayhem, and Jet Li is pretty much retired due to his health issues. However, Donnie is the one of the three who hasn’t truly headlined a film in the American market.
Perhaps this is due to Yen’s mixed experiences working on American films early in his career. As he explained to GQ, “when I did Blade II I had a horrible time, man. Really one of the worst times in my career. Guillermo was a total gentleman. He’s totally cool, and he loves martial arts movies. But the producer walked by me, and wouldn’t even talk to me.” Donnie would work on the...

If you ever find yourself in a fight with Donnie Yen, you better make sure you’re prepared to lose. The Ip Man star has tangled with the best of them. In the upcoming John Wick: Chapter 4, Yen is expected to face off against the star, Keanu Reeves, in a battle to rival all you’ve seen so far. Cbr now reports that Yen’s character, Caine, was originally meant to appear much different. Initially, the action legend was to sport an old-school, stereotypical Asian look, but Yen wanted to expand his wings far from that. This is John Wick afterall.
Yen recently sat down with GQ to discuss his participation in the upcoming sequel. Yen had gone to the director, Chad Stahelski, with his reservations. “The name was Shang or Chang. Why does he always have to be called Shang or Chang? Why can’t he have a normal name?...

Lionsgate has dropped its third and final trailer for “John Wick: Chapter 4.” The Keanu Reeves-led action franchise is the brightest bright spot on Lionsgate’s theatrical slate and their most obvious hope for a 2023 breakout.
As with previous trailers, this one shows off new action scenes, new opponents and new comparative niche — at least to North American viewers — movie stars coming to the party.
To those in the know, the likes of Chinese action-god Donnie Yen and direct-to-dvd and VOD action king Scott Adkins (also seen by American theatergoers in “Doctor Strange” and “Expendables 2”) qualify as added value elements. The film will give these folks a higher-profile platform, at least in terms of mainstream Hollywood audiences, to show off their star power.
Clancy Brown showing up and subtly riffing on his “Highlander” appearance is for fans old enough to have kids who can buy an R-rated movie ticket sans parent or guardian.

Shah Rukh Khan just reclaimed his status as one of India’s biggest butts-in-seats draws after a four-year absence from movies.
Director Siddharth Anand’s action spectacular “Pathaan,” a loosely connected installment in India’s ongoing Yrf Spy Universe series, earned 77 million in its first week of global release. The immediate success both reaffirmed Khan’s bankability and provided a much-needed jolt to a struggling Bollywood industry.
Khan was a name synonymous with Bollywood in the 1990s and 2000s. However, as explained by film critic and pop culture journalist Siddhant Adlakha, he was known more as a romantic lead than as an action hero.
“The comparison is closer to Tom Cruise of the 1980s and 1990s,” argued Adlakha, “when he became a star through films like ‘The Firm’ and ‘Jerry Maguire,’ as opposed to the last two decades during which Cruise has primarily made action flicks like ‘Edge of Tomorrow’ and the ‘Mission: Impossible’ sequels.

Andrey Ivchenko, the Ukrainian actor probably best recognized for his role as Russian hit man Grigori in the third season of Stranger Things, is set to star alongside Jean-Claude Van Damme in the neo-noir action film Darkness of Man.
The L.A.-set film — first announced at the American Film Market in November, where it was introduced to buyers by Vmi Worldwide — comes from director James Cullen Bressack, who co-wrote the script with Alethea Cho from an original story he devised alongside Van Damme. Bressack also produces alongside Jarrett Furst.
Darkness of Man sees Van Damme play Hatch, an Interpol operative who must protect the son of a murdered informant from a group of merciless gangs. The Hollywood Reporter understands that Ivchenko, also known for xXx: Return of Xander Cage, is set to star as the head of the Russian mob and a ruthless, smart and calculated businessman who has been crossed by Hatch,...

A reboot of Red Sonja spent nearly fifteen years in development hell before going into production last year with director M.J. Bassett (Solomon Kane) at the helm. Before Bassett signed on, the project had passed through the hands of directors Robert Rodriguez, Simon West, Bryan Singer, and Joey Soloway, with Hannah John-Kamen, Rose McGowan, and Amber Heard being considered for the lead role. Today The Hollywood Reporter posted an interesting article about how Red Sonja was able to escape from development hell… and it basically boils down to a director’s enthusiasm for the material and a producer’s desperation to get the movie made.
The 50-something Bassett says she has been borderline obsessed with Red Sonja since her childhood, and “I cursed every time they announced someone else (as director). I kept telling them, ‘When you change again, let me know.’” And they did let her know when Soloway...

With 661 million worldwide as of Thursday, and a possible end-of-weekend cume over/under 900 million global, Walt Disney and 20th Century Studios’ “Avatar: The Way of Water” is on its way to potentially becoming the year’s biggest global grosser. However, with just 80 million from China in eight days from a 57 million opening weekend (including a 78 drop on its second Friday), according to individuals with knowledge, James Cameron’s underwater 3-D epic is the latest big Hollywood movie to stumble in China. It’s also the latest Hollywood tentpole, think “Top Gun: Maverick” (1.49 billion sans China) or “The Batman” (just 20 million out of 770 million from China), to earn top-tier global box office with almost no help from the Middle Kingdom.

It's hard to imagine the modern action movie landscape without Vin Diesel. Most impressively, Diesel has found success in franchises built from the ground up, including, obviously, "Fast and Furious" (and all of its title variations). And while his "Fast" films remain his most financially successful projects, Diesel produces a number of other original franchises. One of which is "xXx," another action-packed endeavor that debuted in 2002 a year after "Fast and Furious." Despite a more-than-decent box-office run, "xXx" never quite landed with the masses. That didn't stop Diesel from coming back to the franchise many years later with "xXx: Return of Xander Cage in 2017.
A film series known for its daring stunts, "xXx" helped solidify Diesel as a truly committed action star and producer that did whatever it took to capture the best, wildest action imaginable. I mean, his character literally evades a helicopter and its gunfire several times on...

Exclusive: Lucas Till (MacGyver), Ruby Rose (Taurus), Tyrese Gibson (Morbius) and Don Johnson (Knives Out) will topline the action-thriller The Collective from Yale Entertainment, which has recently wrapped production.
In the film directed by Tom DeNucci, a group of righteous assassins called The Collective take aim at a highly sophisticated human trafficking ring backed by a network of untouchable billionaires. With their backs against the wall, The Collective has no choice but to put their most important mission in the hands of rookie assassin, Sam Alexander (Till). What he lacks in experience he makes up for in savvy, grit, and a keen ability to improvise in the most dangerous situations. He is aided on his journey by Hugo (Gibson) and Liam (Johnson), former CIA operatives turned rogue vigilantes. They face off against Daisy (Rose), the cunning general manager of this evil, clandestine organization. Sam must prove to himself, Liam and...

Warner Bros. Discovery will be releasing “Mickey 17,” an original sci-fi melodrama from Bong Joon Ho, on March 29, 2024.
The next feature from the filmmaker of “Parasite,” which became the first non-English-language film to win the Academy Award for Best Picture in 2020, stars Robert Pattinson, Steven Yeun, Naomi Ackie, Toni Collette and Mark Ruffalo. It is produced by Dooho Choi, Boon Joon Ho, Dede Gardner, Jeremy Kleiner.
While no official logline has been offered, the film is based on Edward Ashton’s novel “Mickey 7,” which concerns n expendable — and employee on a human expedition sent to colonize an ice world.

The brief teaser offered below by Warner Bros. sees Robert Pattinson as, presumably, Mickey7 or Mickey19 being brought back/rebuilt/etc. after a fatal calamity. Watch a teaser for the film at the top of this post.

Actor and singer Nicky Jam is no stranger to the Latin Grammys stage, and this year, he performed a touching rendition of “El Perdon” as he shared the stage with young singers from the Latin Grammys Cultural Foundation. He performed the song alongside a live band, on a stage designed as a recording studio. The setup was particularly special because it foreshadowed the surprise that awaited the young singers: They also received a donated grant from Jam to support their musical careers.

After years in and out of development hell, it sounds like the much-loved "Gears of War" video game franchise may actually be making the jump from your gaming console to your Netflix home page. According to The Hollywood Reporter, the streaming giant is set to tackle not one but two adaptations of the massively popular series, which currently includes five main games plus several spin-offs.
Per THR, the Netflix deal in partnership with The Coalition includes plans for a live-action feature film adaptation, as well as an adult-oriented animated series. The streamer was able to acquire rights to the saga after months of reported negotiations, years after Universal previously optioned the rights to "Gears of War." In fact, the road to an adaptation has been anything but straightforward for the Epic Games and The Coalition-made series.

Two months ago, the Red Sonja reboot finally made it into production after spending nearly fifteen years in development hell. After passing through the hands of directors Robert Rodriguez, Simon West, Bryan Singer, and Joey Soloway, Red Sonja has ended up being brought back to the screen by M.J. Bassett (Solomon Kane). And while Hannah John-Kamen, Rose McGowan, and Amber Heard were considered for the lead role at different points, the star of Bassett’s Red Sonja is Matilda Lutz (Revenge). As filming on Red Sonja continues, a first look image has arrived to give us a preview of how Lutz looks as the title character – and you can check it out at the bottom of this article!

Universal has acquired the rights to “Regulators,” an action-comedy produced by Will Smith’s Westbrook Studios that will star singer and “Bad Boys for Life” actor Nicky Jam, an individual with knowledge of the project told TheWrap.
Will Smith is producing the film on behalf of Westbrook along with Jon Mone, Miguel Melendez and Heather Washington for Westbrook Studios. Jam will also produce the film with Juan Diego Medina and Lorenzo Braun for his music label La Industria, Inc. and Three Six Zero.
“Regulators” is the second Westbrook Studios project that has picked up steam at a major studio in recent weeks after Paramount attached a director to a Smith passion project called “Brilliance,” one that at one point had the “King Richard” actor attached to star.

While many may know Vin Diesel as the tank top-wearing, Corona-drinking man that's all about family from the "Fast & Furious" franchise, it's easy to forget that Diesel's reach goes well beyond just one franchise. Diesel has appeared in the MCU, led the "Riddick" series, and will even be in James Cameron's "Avatar: The Way of Water" later this year. But there's another franchise that starred Diesel that launched around the same time as the "Fast & Furious" franchise.
In 2002, just a year after the inaugural film in the "Fast & Furious" franchise, "The Fast and the Furious, opened in theaters, another action film called "xXx" came out. Diesel once again teamed up with Rob Cohen and Neal H. Moritz, who directed and produced "The Fast and the Furious," respectively, on the film.

A couple weeks ago, we learned that a new take on Red Sonja had gone into production – after spending decades in development hell – with Matilda Lutz (Revenge) in the title role. Deadline reports that Lutz is joined in the cast by Oliver Trevena, who has experience wielding a sword thanks to his role in the 2019 film The Rising Hawk. Trevena is taking on the role of Tr’aal, “a gladiator-type warrior who joins Sonja in her fight against an evil emperor”.

In the nearly four decades since the first live-action film starring Brigitte Nielsen and Arnold Schwarzenegger, another adaptation of Dynamite Entertainment's "Red Sonja" has failed to materialize in Hollywood — but it's not for lack of trying. Robert Rodriguez once had a vision that included Rose McGowan in the titular role. Before allegations of sexual assault were brought to light, Bryan Singer was also in line to helm a project based on the character originally created for Marvel Comics in 1973 by writer Roy Thomas and artist Barry Windsor-Smith. And the third attempt in recent history included "Ant-Man and the Wasp" star Hannah John-Kamen as the lead and "Transparent" creator Joey Soloway in the director's chair.
