In an interview with Strikeforce’s website MMA fighter-turned-actor Cung Le said that he would be returning to film ‘The Grandmasters‘ in April:
Basically, I was in China in early October for a Wong Kar Wai movie called “The Grandmasters†for two weeks…On December 23rd, I wrapped “Dragon Eyes†and came home for Christmas, and then left on the 26th for China for another movie, “The Man with the Iron Fist†for nine weeks of filming. At the same time, “Grandmasters†was filming out there, so I worked a week on that film. It ended up with them wanting to expand my role, so now I’ve got to go back out to China at the end of April to do some more shooting. I’m getting to work with some big names. Wong Kar Wai is a big-time director out there, and Tony Leung, who’s like the Brad Pitt of China.
