Among the highlights on the studio's lineup is Lu Chuan's action adventure film 'Bureau 749,' based on a real-life Chinese government research organization that studies purported paranormal activity.
Wolf Warrior 2, touted its forthcoming film slate at a showcase event held near the Shanghai International Film Festival., which Beijing Culture boarded earlier this year as a 35 percent financier, alongside fellow film powerhouses Huayi Brothers Media and Tencent Pictures. The film is in the final stages of production but little had been revealed about it prior to Monday.
The film indeed sounds like a deviation from Lu's most recent work as a director, the 2016 nature documentary,As the title suggests, the film centers on China's real-life Bureau 749, a Chinese government research department that studies topics ranging from alleged supernatural forces to human body structure.
Beijing Culture's chairman, Song Ge, opened the company's Shanghai event by outlining the studio's approach to commercial moviemaking. "Given the societal circumstances we have today, we should be shooting films that reflect mainstream values, he said. Stories that the state encourages you to shoot, things that are familiar to average people, which are stabilizing to society — this is the role of commercial filmmaking.
