Dead or Alive Movie Filming Begins
Fans of the bouncy bits will now have something distinctly more human to look at. We presume there will be a few fight scenes as well.
The lovely ladies in Tecmo's multimillion selling Dead or Alive series are bringing their wily ways to the silver screen.
Cory Yuen, director of Jason Statham actioner The Transporter and fight choreographer for Lethal Weapon 4 and Romeo Must Die is currently shooting the flick on location in China and Hong Kong.
The film, which is based on a script co-written by Pretty Woman scribe J.F. Lawton, stars an array of lithe, young Hollywood twentysomethings, including Jaime Pressly (Not Another Teen Movie), pop star Holly Valance, Devon Aoki (Sin City), Matthew Marsden (Black Hawk Down) and Eric Roberts (National Security).
The movie may yet be a way off, but you can catch the ladies in their Xbox 360 debut Dead or Alive 4, which should launch alongside the console at the end of the year.
