EXCLUSIVE:<\/strong> Mulan <\/em>actor Ron Yuan<\/a> will sit in the director’s chair for the upcoming untitled 47 Ronin<\/a> <\/em>sequel. The action-fantasy pic will be produced by Universal 1440 Entertainment, a production entity of Universal Pictures Home Entertainment.<\/p>\n

“I’m incredibly excited to be working with Universal and the producing team on this genre-blending, martial arts, action, horror and cyber-punk film,” said Yuan. “This will be a fun, intense, supercharged thrill ride for viewers globally.”<\/p>\n

The original film was directed by Carl Rinsch and written by Chris Morgan and Hossein Amini from a story conceived by Morgan and Walter Hamada. Keanu Reeves, Hiroyuki Sanada, Tadanobu Asano, Rinko Kikuchi and Ko Shibasaki starred in 47 Ronin,<\/em> which was based on Ch\u016bshingura. <\/em>The pic tells a fictionalized account of the titular 47 r\u014dnin, a real-life group of samurai in the 18th century who set out to avenge the death of their master who was killed by a merciless shogun. 47 Ronin<\/em> banked over $38 million at the domestic box office and $151 million globally.<\/p>\n

Yuan directed CMC\/Lionsgate’s Step Up China: Year for the Dance <\/em>and was the action director for Jason Statham’s Wild Card<\/em> and China-Taiwan co-production of Black and White: Dawn of Justice<\/em>, Sony’s Black Dynamite <\/em>and Angel of Death.<\/em><\/p>\n

Onscreen, Yuan stars as Sergeant Qiang in Disney’s live-action adaptation of Mulan,<\/em> directed by Niki Caro and will lend his voice to Pearl Films and Stephen Chow’s animated feature The Monkey King<\/em> for Netflix. He also stars in Bao Tran’s upcoming action-comedy The Paper Tigers <\/em>for XYZ Films.<\/p>\n

Yuan is repped by UTA, Greene & Associates, Authentic Talent and Literary Management and Arlene Thorton & Associates.<\/p>\n
