A Film I'd Love To See Happen

Twitch.com reported on a story about a producer trying to get a film made with Donnie Yen and Tony Jaa together. You may not be familiar with Donnie Yen, but he can bust some moves, so the idea of him and Tony Jaa in a film together is pretty exciting. It's just wishing at the moment, the offers are being made, but one worth keeping an eye on. Especially as it's actually a HK project with Ringo Lam slated to direct. Ringo is an old school HK director who was riding the same wave as John Woo and Tsui Hark in the pre-handover glory days. He has a strong visual style, a nice grittiness to his work, so I'd be very keen to see what he can do with Donnie and Tony, who I think both would suit that kind of modern sensibility. Here's hoping.
