Calling all Jet fans! The good old guys over at Universal are giving you the oppotunity to be put right into the action with their new promotion for the release of Li's Fearless on DVD.

Li's latest Hollywood film, War, was released in August 2007, and re-teamed him with actor Jason Statham who previously starred with him in The One and action choreographer Corey Yuen. Surprisingly War failed to do well at the box office becoming one of Li's lowest grossers in America.
