Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Wuershan's debut feature before painting the Monkey King franchise red. The studio hated it; cult audiences saved it.
The segmented structure deliberately mirrors traditional Chinese storytelling—three kingdoms, three fates, one blade that outlives them all. Wuershan was essentially making wuxia Pulp Fiction for a market that wasn't ready.

I am surprised the lawyers at Fox haven't taken down this trailer after they aggressively sent out letters to website owners a few months back for uploading them.
