What’s the recipe for a truly global action film? A director who has worked with
Dwayne Johnson & Arnold Schwarzenegger, an action director who choreographs
Jackie Chan, and the cinematographer of 'Robocop'!
Chuck Russell: It is something you have never seen beforeThe director says, “To me, this is the highest form of entertainment. It is a fun ride, a huge adventure. It's for adults and kids and has the real spirit of animals in an action movie. I have never seen that before."
Vidyut Jammwal: 'Junglee
' will be to India what 'Ong Bak' is to Thailand “The whole world will get to know what
Kalaripayattu
is. For instance, Tony Jaa (internationally renowned Thai actor and martial artist) does Muay Thai. He had a movie called 'Ong Bak' and the whole world got to know that there is a martial art called Muay Thai. 'Junglee' will let the whole world know that we got Chuck Russell believe in the mother of all martial arts," says Vidyut.
The action in 'Junglee' has been choreographed by
Chung Chi Li
, who has worked with Jackie Chan in hits like the 'Rush Hour' franchise, 'Shanghai Noon', and
'The Tuxedo', among others.
Chung Chi Li’s action sequences have been brought to life by
Mark Irwin, the Director of Photography who is best known for '
Robocop 2
'.
A Junglee Pictures production, ‘Junglee’ is directed by Chuck Russell, produced by Vineet Jain and co-produced by Priti Shahani. The film is set to release in cinemas on March 29.
