Back in March we announced that Dynasty Warriors was getting an official Live-Action movie called Dynasty Warriors: Destiny of an Emperor, and we are happy to say that the film is very much on schedule for it’s 2019 release! China 3D Digital Entertainment Limited started filming a few months ago, and things are going smooth and looking great!
For those out of the loop, here is some information about the film’s crew, director and who stars in it.

It looks like the film will be focusing on the early period of the Han Dynasty’s fall if the cast list is lead to be believed. As well as the trailer prominently featuring Yellow Turban forces. Below you can see some photos taken on the set for the film:
It’s certainly looking quite good, and flashy. Though we won’t know how much substance there is to this style until we can actually see it for ourselves. Dynasty Warriors: Destiny of an Emperor is planned to release in Hong Kong sometime during 2019.
