RZA Releases “The Man With the Iron Fists” Soundtrack
(AllHipHop News) Wu-Tang veteran RZA has released the soundtrack to his highly anticipated movie “The Man With the Iron Fists.” RZA directed the movie and executive produced the soundtrack to the film, which features guess like Kanye West, the Wu-Tang Clan, the Black Keys, Pusha-T, Talib Kweli, Freddie Gibbs, Kool G. Rap and others. “I spent 150 days in China [shooting the movie] so I became very very homesick and very lonely,” RZA told AllHipHop.com. “I basically had to lose myself in work. I had no girlfriend and no communication. I spent 12-18 hours working and all that work went into this film,” said RZA. RZA said likened “The Man With the Iron Fists” to Wu-Tang Clan’s classic debut, Enter The Wu-Tang (36 Chambers). If all goes well on opening day, RZA will continue to pursue a career as one of Hollywood’s top directors. “If it goes according to my plan, as it does sometimes – yeah I will definitely be directing more films,” RZA told AllHipHop.com. “This to me is like Enter the 36 Chambers – the first. That means I still have Tical, I still got Cuban Linx, I still Got Supreme Clientele, I still got Return To The 36 Chambers, Liquid Swords, I still have that creativity in me, but in a film way.” “The Man With the Iron Fists” movie will hit theaters on November 2 and stars RZA, Russell Crowe, Lucy Liu and others.

Universal Pictures Sets November Release For RZA’s “The Man With The Iron Fists”
(AllHipHop News) Universal Pictures has set a November 2nd release date for RZA’s directorial debut The Man With the Iron Fists. The film, which was written by and also stars RZA, finds the Wu-Tang co-founder cast as a blacksmith who is tasked with defending his village in feudal China. The film also stars Russell Crowe, Lucy Liu, Pam Grier, Cung Le, Byron Mann, Rick Yune, David Batista, and Jamie Chung. The film’s official synopsis is below: Quentin Tarantino presents The Man With the Iron Fists, an action-adventure inspired by kung-fu classics as interpreted by his longtime collaborators RZA and Eli Roth. Making his debut as a big-screen director and leading man, RZA—alongside a stellar international cast led by Russell Crowe and Lucy Liu—tells the epic story of warriors, assassins and a lone outsider hero in nineteenth-century China who must unite to destroy the clan traitor who would destroy them all. Since his arrival in China’s Jungle Village, the town’s blacksmith (RZA) has been forced by radical tribal factions to create elaborate tools of destruction. When the clans’ brewing war boils over, the stranger channels an ancient energy to transform himself into a human weapon. As he fights alongside iconic heroes and against soulless villains, one man must harness this power to become savior of his adopted people. Blending astonishing martial-arts sequences from some of the masters of this world with the signature vision he brings as the leader of the Wu-Tang Clan and as one of hip-hop’s most dominant figures of the past two decades, RZA embarks upon his most ambitious, stylized and thrilling project to date.
