The Man with the Iron Fist is a martial arts action flick set in China about a weaponry blacksmith (RZA) who has to defend for himself and his family. Actress Jamie Chung plays Lady Silk, a stewardess...
"The original cut was four hours long and RZA was like, 'Let's turn it into two movies!' (Producer) Eli (Roth) was like, 'Eh, no.' So they're really excited and I have complete faith in RZA. He's a complete genius when it comes to these things and he knows the genre so well. So it's cut down to an hour and a half and it's picture locked and now he's working on the music. So I'm pretty exited and everyone's pretty stoked. But it will have that kind of cult feel like 36th Chamber of Shaolin or Five Deadly Venoms. It's definitely a delicacy. It's still fun and awesome and Russell Crowe's doing some crazy things that you would never think you'd see him do. I think it may come out in August."
