Jamie Chung Speaks About RZA's 'The Man with the Iron Fist'

Posted byBy Joe Cohen | Published on: CommentsComments (0)

‘The Man With the Iron Fist’ starring RZA and Jamie Chung, and produced by Quentin Tarantino  is well into post production now and ComingSoon got a chance to build with Jamie Chung and asked about starring in RZA’s film.

She goes on to say that the first cut was four hours long and RZA stated he wanted to split it into two movies! However, the producers weren’t too thrilled about that idea.

She added: “They’re really excited and I have complete faith in RZA, he’s a genius when it comes to these things and he knows the genre so well. So, it’s cut down to an hour and a half. Now he’s working on the music. Everyone is stoked but it will have that cool feel like ’36th Chambers of Shaolin’ or ‘Five Deadly Venoms.’ It’s definitely a delicacy and Russell Crowe is doing some amazing things that you would never see him do in film. It’s a fun movie. I think it may come out in August.”

“The Man with the Iron Fist” follows a blacksmith (RZA) in feudal China who makes weapons for a small village. He finds himself in a dangerous position where he must defend himself and his fellow villagers.

 

 

 

 

Independent journalism doesn't fund itself.

We hope this story was worth your time. For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed Black-owned and independently run. We didn't get here by waiting on ad budgets that were never built to prioritize us. Our readers did that.

Corporate support for Black media has always been thin. Outlets like ours get roughly 1% of the $170 billion spent on U.S. advertising each year, and that margin is shrinking further as advertisers walk back the DEI-linked commitments they made in 2020. That's the backdrop. It's not why we're asking.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
