Hong Kong director John Woo (Face Off, Broken Arrow) is shooting a Chinese film "Red Cliff". With 80 million dollars of investment, this film will be the most expensive movie in Asian film history.

"Red Cliff" is based on a war from the Three Kingdoms period where Shu and Wu kings joined forces and defeated Wei king, Cao Cao. The movie will be released in 2008 before the Beijing Olympics.

Our previous Beijing Opera video clip also features the same story.

This is a Nuo Mask of Cao Cao, the Wei Kingdom ruler.
