Watch The First Trailer For Zhang Yimou’s ‘The Great Wall’!

Briefly: Well this is a fantastic trailer for a film that I’d somehow never heard of until now.

Legendary Pictures and Universal Pictures have just dropped the first trailer for Hero and House of Flying Daggers director Zhang Yimou’s net project, The Great Wall.

The film tells the story of an elite force making a valiant stand for humanity on the world’s most iconic structure.

It’s a insanely interesting premise that had never even crossed my mind before: what if the Great Wall of China was built to keep something out?

The film stars Matt Damon, Jing Tian, Pedro Pascal, Willem Dafoe, and Andy Lau, and was actually the largest film ever to be entirely shot in China.

Take a look at the trailer below, and be sure to let us know what you think! The Great Wall hits theatres on February 17th, 2017.
