By   |  Aug 22, 2017

‘The Foreigner’ is an upcoming British-Chinese action thriller directed by Martin Campbell (‘Casino Royale’).

Based on the 1992 novel ‘The Chinaman’ by Stephen Leather, the story revolves around a restaurant owner who goes on a mission of revenge after his daughter is killed in a bombing by rogue Irish terrorists. The cast includes Jackie Chan, Pierce Brosnan, Liu Tao, Katie Leung, and Manolo Cardona.

Synopsis: Quan (Jackie Chan) is a humble London businessman whose long-buried past erupts in a revenge-fueled vendetta when his teenage daughter dies in a senseless act of politically motivated terrorism. His relentless search to find the terrorists leads to a cat-and-mouse conflict with a British government official Hennessy (Pierce Brosnan), whose own past may hold the clues to the identities of the elusive killers.

‘The Foreigner’ opens across China on 30 September 2017 and in the United States on 13 October 2017.
