"Wu Kong" is a film adaptation of the "no.1 Internet novel" Wu Kong Biography, written by Zeng Yu, under the pseudonym Jin Hezai, which is actually an alternative and post-modern narrative of the stories of Sun Wukong, the Monkey King from the ancient Chinese fantasy classic "Journey to the West." The book became an instant hit and cultural phenomenon, selling 2 million copies since 2000, so the new film is very much anticipated. It is directed by Derek Kwok, who co-directed Stephen Chow's "Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons" in 2013, and starring Hong Kong actor Shawn Yue and Taiwan actor Eddie Peng.
The film will hit Chinese theaters on July 13, 2017.
