The Rza. The Abbot. Prince Rakeem. The Rzarector. Bobby Steels. Bobby Digital.
No matter the handle, I’ve been a fan of the man since the mid 90s. Needless to say his debut martial arts film THE MAN WITH THE IRON FIST is among my most anticipated flicks of the year – the cast and producing pedigree only heighten the fervor. Ladies and gents, I present to you the awesome red-band trailer for film below!
Starring Russell Crowe, Pam Grier, Jamie Chung and Lucy Liu (below) – THE IRON FIST:
Presented by Quentin Tarantino, the action-adventure is inspired by kung-fu classics as interpreted by his longtime collaborators RZA and Eli Roth. Making his debut as a big-screen director and leading man, RZA-alongside a stellar international cast led by Russell Crowe and Lucy Liu-tells the epic story of warriors, assassins and a lone outsider hero in nineteenth-century China who must unite to destroy the clan traitor who would destroy them all.
Since his arrival in China’s Jungle Village, the town’s blacksmith (RZA) has been forced by radical tribal factions to create elaborate tools of destruction. When the clans’ brewing war boils over, the stranger channels an ancient energy to transform himself into a human weapon. As he fights alongside iconic heroes and against soulless villains, one man must harness this power to become savior of his adopted people.
THE FIST clenches November 2nd.
