Lionsgate has confirmed the release date for the 2008 Wuxia film The Forbidden Kingdom, which stars Jackie Chan and Jet Li, and said it will be available on 4K and Blu-ray later this year.
The 4K and Blu-ray versions of The Forbidden Kingdom will be available on February 25, 2025. With both stars on the cover and unique artwork on the inside package, this edition will be offered as a special SteelBook combo.
Lionsgate has not yet confirmed if there will be an exclusive launch for The Forbidden Kingdom, but the 4K version is anticipated to retail for $34.99 and be accessible at a number of movie shops.
The cast of The Forbidden Kingdom also consists of Liu Yifei, Li Bingbing, Michael Angrano, Morgan Benoit, Collin Chou, and Wang Deshun, in addition to Chan and Li.
The Forbidden Kingdom is a fantasy wuxia film that was first released in 2008. It was influenced by the classic Journey to the West from the 16th century. In the story, Angarano plays an American kid who is sent back in time to ancient China and has to accompany Lu Yan (Chan) and Sun Wukong (Li) on a quest to give back the Monkey King’s staff to its rightful owner.
This film is noteworthy for being the first to include both Jackie Chan and Jet Li, and it is frequently cited as one of the earliest coproductions in which an American director created an English-language wuxia picture. The film made $128 million globally upon its release, indicating a middling level of success.
