The twins Albert Leung Koon Hiu and Herbert Leung Koon Shun directed, Terrance Lau Chun Him, Stephen Tung Wai, Philip Ng Won Lung and Cecilia Choi Sze Wan starred STUNTMAN (MO TAI DOH) will be released on September 26th. The first production special "Director's Edition", as well as posters of four major characters, including the Terrance Lau Chun Him played Lee Sai Lung, the Stephen Tung Wai played Lee Sam, and the Ng Won Lung played Leung Chi Wai and the Cecilia Choi Sze Wan played Cherry, were revealed. The story of STUNTMAN revolved around the travails of Hong Kong action actors. Lau Chun Him, Tung Wai, and Ng Won Lung represented three different generations of stuntman figures in the film, telling the story of the blood and tears of action stunt doubles in the Hong Kong film industry. When talking about the original intention of making films, the twin directors recalled the unforgettable words of their elder, Sammo Hung Kam Bo, and hoped that the new film would convey the bitter journey of a martial artist and recreate the professionalism of Hong Kong action films.

Tung Wai, a legendary Hong Kong action director who has won two Golden Horse Awards and seven Academy Awards for Best Action Choreography, has made a strong comeback as "Sam Gor" after seven years. In the film, he plays the stubborn has-been stuntman "Sam Gor", who was dedicated to leading the younger generation to regain the glory of Hong Kong action movies. Director Leung Koon Hiu said that he chose Tung Wai to play "Sam Gor" because he has a profound background and rich acting experience that meets the needs of the role. "The character Lee Sam has experienced many ups and downs personally. Our first requirement is that he can act well, and the audience must believe he is someone who has experienced this; secondly, he has the aura." Tung Wai showed his profound skills in both aura and acting skills, as he brought the role of Sam Gor to life.

In addition to Tung Wai, the Lau Chun Him played "Lung Jai" was also a key role. Director Leung Koon Shun expressed that it was not easy to find a young actor who could demonstrate the skills of a stuntman. "Casting the role of Lung Jai was somewhat challenging. In today's market, casting a person of this age to play the role with skills similar to that of a stuntman is actually very difficult. Later I chose Lau Chun Him." Lau Chun Him previously won praise from the audience for his skill in the role of "Shun Yat" in TWILIGHT OF THE WARRIORS: WALLED IN (GAU LUNG SING JAI JI WAI SING). This time, in addition to challenging the action scenes again, he also has to perform the emotional scenes of "Lung Jai" as he suffered setbacks in the industry and demonstrates his multi-faceted acting skills. The directors of the film frankly said that Ah Him caught their eyes because of his skills in TWILIGHTS. In addition, Ng Won Lung, whose birthday would be on the 16th of this month, would attend the birthday special event that night to meet fans.
