Character Posters for The Forbidden Kingdom

Jet Li and Jackie Chan sorta do battle in their first cinematic collaboration, “The Forbidden Kingdom”, a Hollywood movie about an ancient Chinese tale set in ancient China. So yeah, don’t bother looking for authenticity with this thing, but from everything I’ve seen, it looks like good, clean fun. Head on below for character posters [...]

Movie Poster: The Forbidden Kingdom

It’s funny, but it just occurred to me when I saw this poster for “The Forbidden Kingdom” over at Cinematical that we’ve already gotten the trailer AND a ton of stills from the movie, but we’ve never actually gotten the poster. Which, again, is very odd from a movie marketing standpoint; posters are easy to [...]

The Forbidden Kingdom Movie Trailer!

Wow, how long has it been since I heard about this monumental team-up between two of Asia’s most exciting martial arts star? Years, it seems.

Jackie Chan and Jet Li Thinks The Forbidden Kingdom Will … Suck?

Maybe something got lost in the translation from Chinese to English, but man, it sure sounds like Jackie Chan and Jet Li don’t think all that highly of their upcoming Hollywood collaboration, “The Forbidden Kingdom”.

Images from Jackie Chan and Jet Li’s Forbidden Kingdom

There are probably only two sure things about the upcoming Jet Li/Jackie Chan collaboration, “The Forbidden Kingdom”: The Chinese Government will probably find another reason to ban it, and the action is going to be kick-ass.

Jet Li Talks About the Monkey King in The Forbidden Kingdom

Jet Li recently took time out from filming “The Forbidden Kingdom”, his long-awaited collaboration with Jackie Chan, to talk about the movie — or, more specifically, his Monkey King character, and problems he had (that were resolved) with the original script. Apparently Jet had been approached to do the movie over 3 years ago, but [...]

Collin Chou Joins The Forbidden Kingdom Cast

Speaking of Jet Li and Jackie Chan in “The Forbidden Kingdom”, here’s another name to add to the cast: Collin Chou has joined the crew as the Jade War Lord. The cast of Chou is actually not all that significant (I imagine he’d be the villain or background character), but I do find it kind [...]

Your First Look at Jet Li and Jackie Chan in The Forbidden Kingdom

Here’s your first look at Jet Li and Jackie Chan in costume from their upcoming Chinese/Hollywood-funded epic “The Forbidden Kingdom”. Says AsianPopcorn about the film: “Although based on famous Chinese novel “˜Journey to the West’, the actors in the movie look more like characters in Louis Cha (Jin Yong)’s novels.” Yeah, I really have no [...]

Jackie Chan and Jet Li DOES Fight in The Forbidden Kingdom

When you heard that Jackie Chan and Jet Li would be co-starring in the Hollywood fantasy/action movie “The Forbidden Kingdom”, I bet you were hoping for an onscreen duel between the two. Lucky you, because Jackie Chan has confirmed on his official site that he does, in fact, fight Jet Li in the movie. He [...]
