Teaser Trailer: "14 Blades"



The official teaser trailer for Daniel Lee's upcoming martial arts film "14 Blades" has been released. The film stars Donnie Yen, Zhao Wei, Wu Chun, Qi Yuwu and Sammo Hung.

During the Ming Dynasty, the Emperor of China possessed one weapon greater than all others, the Imperial Guards, an elite force of assassins recruited from street orphans. Trained in clandestine combat from childhood, the Imperial Guards were masters of the 14 Blades - 8 for torture, 5 for killing, and the last blade being reserved for suicide if a mission fails. Above the law, with a license to kill, the Imperial Guards devoted their lives and lethal prowess to the service of the Emperor alone. Green Dragon (Donnie Yen) who is part the Imperial Guards, grows weary of all the killings and politics, so he resigns. Yet he knows too much about their organisation to simply walk away and becomes a target of his former comrades who are now under the command of scheming court officials.

"14 Blades" is scheduled for release in Hong Kong on February 2010.
