The Paper Tigers – Watch the trailer for new martial arts comedy

As teenagers, kung fu disciples Danny (Alain Uy), Hing (Ron Yuan), and Jim (Mykel Shannon Jenkins) were inseparable. Fast forward 25 years and each has grown into a washed-up middle-aged man seemingly one kick away from pulling a hamstring – and not at all preoccupied with thoughts of martial arts or childhood best friends. But when their old master is murdered, the trio reunites, soon learning that avenging their sifu will require conquering old grudges (and a dangerous hitman still armed with ample knee cartilage) if they are to honourably defend his legacy.

Directed by Tran Quoc Bao, the film stars Alain Uy, Ron Yuan, Mykel Shannon Jenkins, Jae Suh Park, Matthew Page, Roger Yuan, Raymond Ma, Peter Adrian Sudarso, Yuji Okumoto, Joziah Lagonoy, Ken Quitugua, Phillip Dang, Andy Le, Brian Le, and Yoshi Sudarso.

The Paper Tigers hits US cinemas and VOD on 7th May 2021.
