The new Great Wall Trailer is Bonkers

Matt Damon has teamed up with sensational director Zhang Yimou (Hero, House of Flying Daggers) for The Great Wall. This is Yimou's first English language film—it's also the largest film ever shot entirely in China. The Great Wall tells the story of an elite force making a valiant stand for humanity on the world’s most iconic structure. Alongside Damon are Jing Tian, Pedro Pascal, Willem Dafoe and Andy Lau. 

The conceit of The Great Wall is the kind of speculative fiction we love; what if when the Chinese were building the Great Wall, they were doing it to keep out something a lot more dangerous than a human army…what if they were trying to keep out monsters? Max Brooks and Edward Zwick & Marshall Herskovitz wrote the story, while the script is by Carlo Bernard & Doug Miro and Tony Gilroy.

The film will be released in 3D by Universal Pictures, and will go wide on February 17, 2017.
