JET LI + YUEN WO-PING 4 EVAH

Jet Li says he's not doing any more wu shu movies, but Yuen Wo-ping just gives that notion a hearty laugh.

He's in China right now, probably bored out of his skull since he hasn't done any Hollywood work since UNLEASHED, and he's announced that he's going to make a movie called CHANG CHENG (GREAT WALL) which is, not surprisingly, about the Great Wall of China. But, rather than focusing on the 3,948 mile long wall coming to life and fighting other national landmarks like the Colossus of Rhodes, the Grand Canyon and the Statue of Liberty, the movie will instead focus on fighting the Huns. Eventually the Chinese had to stop fighting the nomadic Hun horsemen and just built a big wall to keep them out, but since Yuen Wo-ping is asking Jet Li to play the lead, and since Jet Li is known more for his fighting than for his bricklaying, this flick will probably concern itself more with the "fighting the Hun" parts rather than the "building the wall to keep out the Hun" parts.

Yuen says he's pretty confident that Jet Li will take the role since it's an action movie and not a wu shu movie. Currently he's in Beijing rounding up backers for the film.

CriEnglish boils it all down to the level of a WWE event with the headline:

"Director Yuen Wo-ping: Jet Li will eat his words"!!!!
