exclusive photos from the warlords





Just for the heck of it, here are some exclusive photos, courtesy of Magnet Releasing, from The Warlords, starring Jet Li, Andy Lau and Takeshi Kaneshiro. It's one of those big ol' Chinese period action epics about war, loyalty, brotherhood and all that. Here's the synopsis:
Set in the midst of war and political upheaval during the Taiping Rebellion of the 1860s, WARLORDS stars Jet Li as General Pang, who barely survives a brutal massacre of his fellow soldiers by playing dead, and joins a band of bandits led by Er Hu (Andy Lau) and Wu Yang (Takeshi Kaneshiro). After fighting back attackers from an helpless village, the three men take an oath to become "blood brothers," pledging loyalty to one another until death, but things quickly turn sour and the three men become embroiled in a web of political deceit, and a love triangle between Pang, Er Hu and a beautiful courtesan (Wu Jing-Lei).
Three big stars, one big movie. There will be blood, swords, and lots of funny hats. The film is available for viewing on VOD, Amazon, XBOX Live and Playstation on March 4, and will open in theaters on April 2. For more information about the movie, visit The Warlords website here.
