Donnie Yen Compares xXx: Return Of Xander Cage With Ocean's Eleven

Actor Yen Ji-dan popularly known as Donnie Yen, who is also a trained martial artist and cherished for his role in the movie series Ip Man, states that he has been quite elated to be part of the brand xXx: Return of Xander Cage.

The Chinese actor draws a comparison of his latest movie xXx to 2001 hit action drama Ocean's Eleven.

The 53-year-old star actor also said that, his role in the movie along with Vin Diesel was very crucial as he saw this as an opportunity to showcase his martial arts and expand his horizons through a popular movie franchise like xXx.

"It's great to work with Vin I like his films, he makes very fun, exciting films... If you're an adrenaline junkie, you're going to get loads of it. I would describe it as a better-looking 'Ocean's Eleven'," said Donnie Yen in a statement.

"The film allowed me to show that I'm not just the hit-man person, the martial artist, the hero who's always really serious... He's deadly in this film, but he's fun to be with! If he's not in conflict with you, he'll grab a beer and hang out with you!" added the actor.

Apart from xXx: Return of Xander Cage, Yen was also seen recently in Rogue One: A Star Wars Story.
