QED International, which is a leading independent motion picture production, financing and sales distribution company, has been behind A-list films such as: “Fury,” “That Awkward Moment,” “Elysium,” and “District 9.”
Led by experienced industry leaders in finance, production and screenwriting, Bliss Media is dedicated to linking the Chinese Motion Picture Industry with the rest of the world.
“Birth of the Dragon” is inspired by the true story of Bruce Lee’s legendary duel with China’s most famous kung fu master, Wong Jack Man, in San Francisco’s Chinatown. Told from the perspective of one of Lee’s disciples, the film then follows Lee as he takes on a vicious band of Chinatown gangsters.
Utilizing real-life events and characters, the film blends fiction with reality to create an original story that breaks the mold of the traditional biopic.
“Birth of the Dragon” will be directed by George Nolfi (“The Adjustment Bureau,” “Ocean’s Twelve,” “The Bourne Ultimatum”) from a script written by Christopher Wilkinson and Stephen Rivele (“Nixon,” “Ali”).
