Stars bring 'Red Cliff Part 2' to Tokyo
Entertainment ( 2 )
TOKYO —
Actor Takeshi Kaneshiro, 35, Chinese director John Woo, 62, and Taiwanese actress Lin Chiling, 34, were in Tokyo this week for the gala promotion of “Red Cliff Part 2.” Chinese singer A Lan, who sings the movie’s theme song, also attended.
Kaneshiro said, “It took four years to create the film from its planning stage. I think we are all happy to see so many people embrace the film.” Chiling said in Japanese, “I appreciate Japanese fans’ support. Thank you very much.”
Director Woo said part two of the epic features elements based on late Japanese film director Akira Kurosawa’s “Seven Samurai.” He said the success of the first “Red Cliff” proves that Asian films can compete with Hollywood films.
The film will be released April 10 nationwide.

It seems the rest of Asia has already got the DVD release. So if you don't need a Japanese subtitle or dubbing...
