大家都知道基努李維在電影《駭客任務》系列中,跟隨該片武術指導袁和平真正的學過功夫,而這位好萊塢巨星也終於要重返這個道路了。而剛剛結束描述日本著名歷史「忠臣藏」的電影《浪人47》拍攝的基努李維,正在著手他的首部導演作品《太極》(Man of Tai Chi),故事將描述一名年輕武術家在北京發生的經歷,這部片基努李維也將會曾經在《駭客任務》合作過的香港武打明星陳虎合作,他將飾演片中的反派角色。
不過好萊塢似乎沒有打算在新作中還原傳統的武士道精神。早前片方華納表示,電影會摻雜「魔戒」(The Lord of the Rings)類似的神怪元素及「神鬼戰士」(Gladiator)般戰爭場面。
Keanu Reeves - Kungfu Proof of Concept
Bot & Dolly team pimped out a Chevy Sonic with a paint canon, sprayer and 1500lb robot with custom controls. The results were extraordinary and highlight B&D's extensive engineering and fabrication capabilities for creative work.
Keanu Reeves recently used his extensive Rolodex to get an amazing array of filmmakers on camera to talk analog vs. digital in his very well-received documentary "Side By Side" and now it seems he's looking to change the game a bit on his directorial debut, "Man Of Tai Chi."
Сoncept video that show a fight scene and how Reeves will be utilizing the Bot & Dolly's Iris -- a pretty advanced looking, robotically controlled camera system -- to take viewers in, up and around the flying hands and feets.
