Later this year, Liu Ye (Police Story: 2013) will direct and star in Career as a Mercenary, an upcoming action-drama produced by Jackie Chan (Bleeding Steel) and Lu Jianmin (Wolf Warrior II).

Career as a Mercenary tells the story of a soldier who wants to protect his country’s interests abroad. Filming locations include Kazakhstan, France and Israel (via JCF).

Those who were hoping to see Chan in the film may be left disappointed, but they can still look forward to the handful of projects the action superstar is headlining, including Project X-Traction, Climbers and Vanguard, which is currently in production.

We’ll keep you updated on Career as a Mercenary as we learn more. For now, enjoy the Japanese Trailer for 1985’s Twinkle Twinkle Lucky Stars (aka Seven Lucky Stars):
