Tonight brings the first images from a pair of upcoming films. The first is notable because of the cast. The second is notable because it involves punching an eye out of someone’s face.
- Dwayne Johnson and Liam Hemsworth play two friends who rob an armored car company in Empire State, directed by Dito Monteil (Fighting).
- RZA will make his directorial debut on the kung fu picture The Man with the Iron Fists; RZA plays a blacksmith who must defend a small village in feudal China, which requires some eyeball punching.
Hit the jump for the images and more on both projects.
Empire State is an indie production based on the true story of a 1982 NYC armored car company robbery that was thought to be the largest cash heist in U.S. history. Kevin Hart and Emma Roberts co-star. Images via Deadline:
Okay, this is where real the fun is. RZA tweeted, “GIVING U 1ST LOOK AT SNAP SHOT OF MY TRAILER ‘IRON FIST’ COMIN N 2 DAYS” along with the delightful image below. Russell Crowe, Pam Grier, Jamie Chung, and Lucy Liu star alongside RZA in the $20 million production. Quentin Tarantino and Eli Roth are producing. Look for the trailer later this week.

I’m actually really looking forward to Iron Fists. RZA is a talented actor and rapper.
oh man. What I would pay to score or be a DP that RZA movie. that must be so much fun.
got to love small budget movies that those
Ok. RZA is serious, I’m going to watch this movie. As a resident in China that saw glimpses of his film being shot…I’m REALLY excited.
I don’t always punch. But when I do, I punch eyeballs.
What is Hemsworth’s appeal?
Does that go for both of them?
Hemsworth’s appeal? Find a woman, any woman will do. Ask her, ‘What’s Hemsworth’s appeal?’ Observe reaction. Wish you looked like a Hemsworth.
Damn! That eyeball spurt pic is nasty baby!!!
I don’t know what bothers me more…the flying eyeball or the fact that Liam looks WAY older than his 22 years
