From the Associated Press:
Ip Man, a pioneer in the kung fu style that influenced Lee. Hong Kong filmmakers hope to change that by bringing Ip’s story to the big screen.
On Tuesday, action stars Donnie Yen and Sammo Hung from the U.S. TV series “Martial Law” prepared to start shooting one of two planned movies about Ip. They joined Ip’s sons in paying tribute to their father at his hometown in the southern city of Foshan, a four hours northwest of Hong Kong.
Looks line Donnie Yen is going to play Yip Man and I’m not sure what role Sammo Hung has in this production.
Slightly related — while looking at the Wikipedia article on Yip Man I noticed a reference to Wing Chun Magazine. Fans of WC might want to check the magazine out. It appears to be freely available online but you do need Adobe to read it.
