up
about

Speaking
about
his
first
reaction
when
he
heard
the
script,
Simu
Liu
told
us
at
Filmibeat,
"I
remember
I
was
so
excited
to
read
the
script
because
Daniel
Destin
Cretton
(Director)
and
I
had
talked
about
it
quite
a
bit.
Destin
had
done
such
a
beautiful
job
of
describing
the
story
to
me
before
I
got
to
read
it.
And
then
when
I
read
it,
I
cried."
Notably,
Liu
will
be
seen
confronting
his
past
that
he
thought
to
have
left
behind.
However,
he
is
drawn
into
the
web
of
the
mysterious
Ten
Rings
organization
run
by
his
father
played
by
Tony
Leung.
