Wong Kar-Wai's 'The Grandmasters' gets delayed, but at least we have new posters
We've been waiting a long time already for Wong Kar-Wai's amazing-looking martial arts film, The Grandmasters. It's had a spotty production history up to this point, but things seemed to have been progressing nicely over the last few weeks with a December 18th release date in China, and a gorgeous new trailer. But, as it turns out, things were not quite on the solid footing we thought.
Twitch reports that the film has been delayed to January 8th 2013, with rumors suggesting that Kar-Wai is shooting additional footage. Whether that's to fix something or because he thought up a cool scene he wanted to add(more fighting in the rain, I hope?) is unclear. So this is pretty disappointing, and since we are talking actual filming here, there's always the chance that it could be delayed even further.
But at least the studio was nice enough to drop four new posters to help calm our frayed nerves. Check those out below....
