Spy photos from set of Legend of a Fighter
Wu-jing picked up another article with photos from the set of Jet Li's next film Legend of a Fighter, helmed by Ronny Yu.
I could not make much from my bleak translation of the original article but what I could piece together is that these may have been taken the day of shooting the final part of the movie in which Li's character Huo Yuan Jia competes in the ring against foreign challengers in Shanghai. The competitors include that behemoth in the Rex-Kwon-Do shorts.

I definitely wouldn't want to take a roundhouse kick from the guy wearing those bad boys. Starla would be proud. That guy is frickin' huge!

Jiangtou here, still working the spicy Thai food through my system after a long trip away from Toronto.
Want an answer to your question on who the big bald guy in tights strutting around the set of LEGEND OF A FIGHTER is?
The mystery man is none other than Nathan Jones, who fights opposite Tony Jaa in TOM YUM GOONG. You might remember him squaring off against Brad Pitt in Troy. I met him on the set of TOM YUM GOONG in Bangkok a few weeks ago and he mentioned he was next flying to Shanghai to work on the set of LEGEND OF A FIGHTER. The man is massive, but offscreen, defies the hulking thug typecasting as he was discussing the philosophical roots behind the original script of TROY and then launched into long delivries of Shakespeare passages. I guess that's the best way to work up to getting an ass whupping by Tony Jaa on camera in the next few minutes...
