Biopic Starring Jet Li Attacked by Grandson of Film's Subject
 A grandson of legendary kung fu master Huo Yuanjia has filed a lawsuit against the producers and distributors of a new Jet Li biopic about him, claiming that the movie grossly misrepresents the actual life of Huo, who died in 1909, according to a report today (Thursday) by the state-run Xinhua News Agency. The grandson, Huo Shoujin, is demanding a written apology from the filmmakers and a halt to worldwide distribution of the film, which is titled Huo Yuanjia in Chinese and Fearless in English. The lawsuit further claims, without providing examples, that the film dishonors the kung fu master and tarnishes his reputation.
