DIRECTOR DOUG LIMAN TO PRESENT "THE BUTCHER, THE CHEF AND THE SWORDSMAN" 刀见笑

Director and producer Doug Liman (The Bourne Identity, Mr and Mrs Smith) has come on board to present Fox International's Mandarin-language film THE BUTCHER, THE CHEF AND THE SWORDSMAN 刀见笑. Directed by up-and-coming Chinese filmmaker Wuershan, THE BUTCHER, THE CHEF AND THE SWORDSMAN follows the journey of a mystical blade as it passes through the hands of three ambitious men. As the interwoven story unfolds, they find that the blade possesses the ability to dramatically change the fate of each of its owners. Their stories come full circle as each man takes possession of the mystical blade and discovers its double edge- the great power it bestows is matched by even greater danger. The trailer can be found here (a crazy mix of comedy and martial-arts it seems). As of press time, the release date for Singapore has yet to be fixed. (Photo by Twentieth Century Fox)
