《葉問2》和《錦衣衛》制片人打造的新加坡和中國動作片 《龍拳》， 由程旭輝 (輝哥)，謝宛諭，蔡業翰和王曉晨主演。

From the Producer of "Ip Man 2" & "14 Blades" comes a Singapore and China joint production - an action comedy movie starring Henry Thia, Fiona Xie, Michael Chuah and Wang Xiao Chen.

Malaysian writer-director Michael Chuah stars as a young, martial arts-trained man who while visiting his uncle discovers that his hometown has become overrun with violent gangsters so he steps in to defend the locals.

The action comedy also stars Wang Xiao-chen, comedian Henry Thia and Fiona Xie as a stuntwoman. It’s arriving in theaters in Singapore in 2010.

FIST OF DRAGON is a modest, $1 million co-production between Singapore’s Fusian Media and China’s Desen International Media but the extensive fight work, choreographed by Chuah and his stunt team, looks pretty intense from the trailer. I’m also seeing clean forms mixed in there with some rapid, Donnie Yen-style sparring.

Interestingly, Chuah wasn’t originally going to star in this movie but stepped into the lead role when his original pick didn’t pan out. Now, it’s looking like Michael Chuah is going to become the latest rising martial arts star to keep an eye on.

SINGAPORE : Actress Fiona Xie may have completely disappeared from our radar since pulling out of Channel 8 year-end blockbuster “Together” in July, but not for much longer.

The 27-year-old, who plays a stuntwoman in upcoming martial arts movie “Fist of Dragon”, is expected to show up for publicity events when the film by Malaysian director Michael Chuah opens in June next year.

The Malaysian director, who also stars in the movie, expressed that he was shocked when he first heard of Xie’s sudden disappearance. However, she was very professional on the set and never once did a disappearing act, he said.

In the movie, Xie plays Singapore comedian Henry ‘Alamak’ Thia’s daughter, a feisty and aggressive stuntwoman who is being coveted by triad bosses.

Though Xie has little experience in movies, Chuah was impressed by her performance and had enjoyed working with the actress. Unfortunately, they did not keep in contact after filming wrapped.

“I’m not sure if she intends to quit showbiz and I have no idea about her future plans. Nevertheless, I still hope that I will be able to invite her for our publicity events when ‘Fist of Dragon’ screens in Singapore in June,” said the director.

“She’s got great potential and it would be a pity if she quits showbiz.”

“Fist of Dragon” which costs some US$1 million to make, is a co-production between Singapore’s Fusian Media and China’s Desen International Media in association with Malaysia’s Evo Pictures.
