Well Go USA Entertainment will release JIANG ZIYA (姜子牙), the next 3D animation in a series of animated films from Bejing Enlight Pictures in North American theaters on February 7th.
Based on an ancient Chinese myth, the film follows Jiang Ziya, a top commander in the divine army of the Kunlun Sect. Before Jiang Ziya can ascend to his new position among the Gods, he is ordered to execute the Nine-Tailed Fox Demon who threatens the mortal realm’s very existence. But when the Fox Demon shows him a dangerous secret, he is unable to complete his task resulting in his banishment to the mortal realm forever. Ten years later, atop the ruins of war, Jiang Ziya is once again faced with a challenging decision — follow the will of heaven regardless of innocent life lost or find his own path to righteousness.
Produced by Beijing Enlight Pictures, JIANG ZIYA is the second movie in series of films following the box office hit NE ZHA (哪吒之魔童降世, Nézhā zhī Mótóng Jiàngshì, 2019). Currently the highest-grossing animated feature in China’s film history, NE ZHA generated a total box office revenue of nearly $720 million and passed WANDERING EARTH to become China’s second highest grossing film of all-time only behind the 2017 action thriller WOLF WARRIOR 2.
