Jet Li Starring In New 3D Kung Fu Epic: FLYING SWORDS OF DRAGON GATE

Jet Li has signed on to star in Hong Kong director Tsui Hark's kung fu based actioner FLYING SWORDS OF DRAGON GATE.

The $35 million production is supposedly based on Hark's earlier work entitled DRAGON INN which centers on a warrior couple battling with imperial agents in a desert inn. FLYING SWORDS is slated for release in December 2011.

Li has worked with Hark before (ONCE UPON A TIME IN CHINA) and then left for a career in Hollywood. Should be rekindled magic I hope! It was a mild disgrace to not see Jet Li use his full potential in THE EXPENDABLES if you ask me. Time for payback!
