Tsai Yueh-Hsun 蔡岳勳

Mark Chao You-Ting and Huang BoYes, you heard that right! What every fan of old-school action movies has been waiting for has finally happened — the Taiwanese Black & White Episode 1: The Dawn of Assault has gotten an official sequel. The film has already been shot, is currently in post-production, and will hit theaters this summer. Starring once again are Mark Chao You-Ting and Huang Bo, with Tsai Yueh-Hsun back in the director's chair, while among the new faces you'll see Kenny Lin Geng-Xin, Guli Nazha, and several actors who appeared in the original series (the first film was its prequel). Unlike its predecessor, the sequel was shot in 3D, and the visual effects are being handled by the people behind The Grandmaster and Painted Skin: The Resurrection. A special effects studio was built specifically for the shoot in Taiwan, becoming the largest in Asia (it sprawls across 15,000 square meters) — it alone cost the creators 16 million yuan. Still, considering that the first film grossed nearly 100 million, such expenses can be considered justified.
