Detective Dee: The Four Heavenly Kings gets a UK poster and trailer

July 14, 2018 by Gary Collinson

Cine Asia is releasing director Tsui Hark’s (Once Upon a Time in China, The Banquet) new martial arts epic Detective Dee: The Four Heavenly Kings in the UK later this month, and you can take a look at the new poster and trailer here…

Detective Dee (Mark Chao, Young Detective Dee, Monga) is appointed by Emperor Gaozong to protect the Tang Dynasty from rival Empress Wu (Carina Lau, 2046, Days of Being Wild) and is bestowed with the magical Dragon Taming Mace. Wu orders Yuchi Zhenjin (Feng Shaofeng, Wolf Totem, White Vengeance) of the Golden Gard to recruit five mystics and task them with stealing the threatening Mace, the consequence of which is capital punishment for Dee.

Storming the Department of Investigation, Wu orders a demonstration of sorcery power which goes horrifically wrong with deadly consequences. In the confusion, Yuchi Zhenjin is seen killing colleagues of the Golden Gard. It falls to Detective Dee to solve the puzzle and redress the balance of power to save the Tang Dynasty.

Detective Dee: The Four Heavenly Kings is set for release in selected UK cinemas from July 27th 2018.
