More over-the-top Kung Fu action ensures once again but this time around, its combining the sport of lacrosse and Kou Shibasaki (Dororo, Battle Royale) is taking the lead role instead of Stephen.

On her return to Japan, she works to rebuild the dojo and joins her university lacrosse club, putting her considerable physical prowess to work for the team.

This is a must see, clearly. Is Chow involved at all though?

From my understanding, Stephen Chow serve as a consultant for Shaolin Girl and he must have some say on the casting.

Thanks. It looks good, I’ll definitely see it.
