Sleeping Dogs video game movie starring Donnie Yen(Ip Man)

After the sad demise of Vancouver based United Front Games I wasn't sure to hear about one of my favorite games ever again. Now it seems a movie with Donnie Yen is in the making.

deadline.com: ''Yen, a Chinese martial artist, has long been a fight choreographer and is probably best known to audiences as the star —  and Wing Chun grandmaster — of the Ip Man franchise. Original Film is producing with DJ2 Entertainment, specifically producers will be Moritz, Dmitri Johnson and Dan Jevons with Toby Ascher and Stephan Bugaj executive producing. DJ2 is currently co-producing the upcoming live-action/CG feature Sonic the Hedgehog for Sony.'' 

cogconnected.com : ''Since Donnie Yen is well-versed in action roles, famous for leading the Ip Man movies and noted for his portrayal in Rogue One: A Star Wars Story, we suspect an action-packed thriller. Hopefully, the film will utilize Yen better than the Triple X movie and, hopefully, it will remain true to the game’s spirit without sacrificing quality.''

I hope the movie will help to revive the franchise and I can play a new game with Wei Shen as Hong Kong cop.  - screenshots in 4K by the author.
