US online video provider Netflix has released the first trailer for the sequel to Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon.
The film is officially titled Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon: Sword of Destiny.
However, it has deviated a lot from the Oscar-winning masterpiece by Ang Lee in 2000.
The film follows four martial arts heroes who are trying to protect the 400-year-old sword, known as the Green Destiny.
The film is directed by renowned fight choreographer Yuen Woo-ping.
Michelle Yeoh will reprise her role of the original film, joined by Donnie Yen and Harry Shum Jr.
The trailer contains only a few lines by Michelle Yeoh in English, which implies the film will be English-speaking.
The Netflix-backed "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon: Sword of Destiny" will premiere on February 8th next year, both on Netflix and in Chinese theatres.
