Donnie Yen films "Last Of The Best"

24 Jun – From "The Monkey King" to "The Iceman Cometh 3D", the busy Donnie Yen is now moving to the next film in his list, "Last Of The Best".

Oriental Daily reported that the actor was recently seen in Gough Street, situated in Central, Hong Kong, filming for the Teddy Chan-produced movie. Donnie's last collaboration with Teddy was in "Bodyguards and Assassins" in 2009.

Despite the hot 31 degree summer weather, Donnie and the rest of the cast, including actress Charlie Yeung and John Chiang, had to wear thick sweaters, seeing that the story is set during winter.

In "Last Of The Best", Donnie plays a former police martial arts instructor who was imprisoned after accidentally killing a man. However, he offered to help the police to find a serial killer who is targeting martial arts masters in exchange for his freedom.

Co-starring Charlie Yeung, Bai Bing, Wang Baoqiang and John Chiang, Donnie also serves as the movie's choreographer.

Although a release date has yet to be determined, Donnie disclosed that he hopes that the movie, which has only begun filming in May, will premiere in 2014.
