Earlier, crime thriller Cold War released a new trailer, the film which was directed by new director Liang Yue-ming and produced by Sunny Luk, the huge cast gathered Aaron Kwok, Tony Leung Kar Fai, Aarif Rahman Lee, Eddie Peng Yu-yen, Charlie Yeung and Terence Yin. It was alleged that Andy Lau joined the cast but nothing confirmed but he made his first appearance in the new trailer, it seems that he will be just a cameo but with regards to what character, it’s still a secret.

The trailer kicked off with the bald and moustache Hong Kong Independent Commission Against Corruption officer Tony giving a lecture to his subordinates, talking about the Hong Kong police force under siege after 5 police officers were captured in a robbery, followed by several explosions, gun battles, car chases. Although the trailer did not revealed much about the story but at the end, Andy made a surprise appearance, he said: “Extreme moments, used extreme methods” thus making his character a mystery, hard to guess whether he would be a villain.

Chin Kar Lok whom had done well in crime thrillers in recent years was the action director of the film, he’s also the buddy of Aaron in the police force, however he died in one of the mission which triggered Aaron to go after the big case. Other actors Aarif Rahman Lee, Eddie Peng Yu-yen, Andy On, Gordon Lam Ka Tung, Charlie Yeung and Terence Yin also made appearance in the trailer, taking up different type of polices, showing off “turning the police world upside down, a battle fore-coming”.

Since the preparation of Cold War, it has been anticipated to be Hong Kong movie industry’s second Infernal Affairs, the collaboration of Liang Yue-ming and Sunny Luk resembles the feel of Alan Mak and Felix Chong, at the lensing ceremony in Hong Kong last year, film company Edko Films Limited boss William Kong expressed that he decided to invest in the film after reading the script, the cast also sing praise of the script. Aaron even postponed the rehearsals of his concert to be involved in the shooting of the film.

One thing to mention, Andy and Aaron will be the collaborating after their last collaboration in Lee Rock 2 and Saviour of the Soul, with regards to how much screen time they have together is still unknown. Cold War has been scheduled will be screened in Hong Kong on 18 October.
