Texas-based distributors Well Go USA have officially announced that they will release on Blu-ray director Stephen Fung's Tai Chi Hero (2012), starring Jayden Yuan, Angelababy, Tony Leung Ka Fai, Eddie Peng, Shu Qi, and Daniel Wu. The release will be available for purchase on July 23rd.
Lu Chan (Jayden Yuan) is still trying to find his place in Chen Village, the legendary town where everyone is a martial arts master … and Chen-style Tai Chi is forbidden to outsiders. But since he helped save the town from a frightening steam-powered machine, Yuniang (Angelababy), beautiful daughter of Grandmaster Chen (Tony Leung Ka Fai), agrees to marry Lu Chan and bring him into the family. However, it's only a formality – she is the teacher and he is the student – and that suits Lu Chan just fine, as the mutant horn on his head gives him incredible kung fu power but leaves him dumber and closer to death each time he uses it. Chen Village still stands in the shadow of danger. A prodigal brother returns, Lu Chan's presence invokes a curse on the town, and Yuniang's scorned fiancée has an appetite for revenge, as well as some new partners in crime.
