This is a new trailer for the Bruce Lee film titled Birth of a Dragon.
The story focuses on the infamous and controversial private street fight that took place between Lee (Philip Ng) and the Chinese martial artist Wong Jack Man (Yu Xia) in 1964. There is also a romantic subplot involving an American and a Chinese immigrant, who is under the control of the Chinese mafia. It is inspired by true events, but isn't necessarily completely fact based. The production is financed by the China based Kylin Pictures and was produced by Groundswell's Michael London and Janice Williams. The script was written by Christopher Wilkinson and Stephen J. Rivele. This is the second directing job for George Nolfi, who had previously written and directed The Adjustment Bureau. It is scheduled to be released on August 25, 2017. Check out the synopsis and trailer below.
