The Man With The Iron Fists

 The Man With The Iron Fists is Wu-Tangs mastermind RZA's directorial debut. RZA teamed up with Quentin Tarantino and Eli Roth for this Kung-Fu project. Looking back at the 'Tragedy' video it seems like it has always been a life long dream of his. The film boasts stars such as Russell Crowe and Lucy Lui



 The first cut of the film was four hours long and RZA wanting to split it into two films. Producer Eli Roth disagreed and the film was cut down to 90 minutes. The plot: A blacksmith who makes weapons for a small village is put into a position in which he must defend himself and the rest of the village. I know it doesn't sound like much, but i just cant wait for the ass-kicking!
