Jackie Chan befriends John Cusack in this exclusive Dragon Blade clip

A massive success this year in its native China, "Dragon Blade" brings action spectacle on a grand scale to US audiences. Featuring an international cast led by Jackie Chan, John Cusack and Adrien Brody, the film features the fight for the Silk Road when East and West collide. When corrupt Roman leader Tiberius (Adrien Brody) arrives with a giant army to claim the Silk Road, Huo An (Jackie Chan) and his group of trained warriors teams up with an elite legion of defected Roman soldiers led by General Lucius (John Cusack) to maintain the delicate balance of power in the region. To protect his country and his new friends, Huo An gathers the warriors of thirty-six ethnic nations together to fight Tiberius in an incredible epic battle. The film is written and directed by Daniel Lee (BLACK MASK) and produced by Jackie Chan and Susanna Tsang.

John Cusack arguably hasn't made a movie that WASN'T entertaining, so while I can't say how well DRAGON BLADE has turned out, I'll be damned if I'm not interested in seeing it. I mean, it's John Cusack and Jackie Chan for crying out loud! The two of them have some solid comedic timing, so despite what Cusack has to say in this clip, I'm willing to bet they're besties by the film's end.

DRAGON BLADE will open in select theaters, VOD and iTunes on September 4, 2015.
