Entertainment news website The Hollywood Reporter reported on Wednesday that Constantin Film’s Hollywood live-action film adaptation of CAPCOM’s Monster Hunter action game franchise will star martial arts actor Tony Jaa (Ong-Bak film series) alongside the previously announced star Milla Jovovich (Resident Evil movie franchise).
Anderson is also directing the Monster Hunter film, and his Impact Pictures producing partner Jeremy Bolt is producing.
Jovovich will play a character named Artemis, and Jaa is playing a man called “The Hunter.”
He must travel to a mystical world to train to become a Monster Hunter, before the mythical creatures from that world destroy ours.
