When corrupt Roman leader Tiberius arrives with a giant army to claim the Silk Road, Huo An teams up his army with an elite Legion of defected Roman soldiers led by General Lucius to protect his country and his new friends.
Dragon Blade is a film which goes on quite a journey. To begin with, you’ve got Jackie Chan and all the wacky jokes and complete badassery which follows him around. Throw in some swords, fighting, battles. Also, for the sake of it, let’s have a little musical number too. Not the dancing type, but the epic ‘everyone is singing about how great stuff is’ type. Then a splash of child murder and some more...

Our Photo Gallery has been updated with new photos and posters from upcoming action comedy Little Big Soldier. You can check out bigger versions of each by clicking them below
Jackie Chan stars as a lowly, unnamed Liang soldier who survives an ambush by Qin forces that decimates his 2000-strong army. The only other survivor appears to be a young Wei general (Wang Lee-hom) fighting for the Qin, who Chan’s character takes hostage and together they set off back to Liang, where he can collect a plot of land as reward for his captive. The injured general needs his captor if he is to reach civilization, but that doesn’t stop him attempting to escape, or at least take a swing or two, whenever the opportunity presents itself.
Hotly pursued by Prince Wen (Steven Yoo) and his personal entourage, and set upon by a varied assortment of opportunistic peasants...

Back in April, Jackie Chan spilled the beans on his latest China-based project Little Big Soldier, a period action comedy that Jackie produced, wrote and starred in and the co-stars included Lee Hom, Lin Peng and exiled Korean singer Yoo Seung-Jun. At the Cannes Film Festival, the first sign of promotion for the film has kick off in the form of an international poster. What the heck is up with Jackie having a bird sitting on top his head and an arrow sticking out of his chest? I guess he is tapping into his comedic roots by playing an odd character of some sort.
