葉問2

În spatele fiecărui mare artist marțial stă un învățător.

După ce i-a învins pe cei mai buni luptători ai armatei japoneze imperiale din Shanghaiul ocupat, Ip Man și familia sa s-au stabilit în Hong Kongul postbelic. Pentru a-și câștiga existența, Maestrul Ip deschide o școală de kung fu pentru a aduce arta sărbătorită Wing Chun tinerilor tulburați din Hong Kong. Reputația sa crescândă aduce în curând provocări din partea inamicilor puternici, inclusiv maestrul pre-eminent al Hung Gar, Hung Quan. Cu toate acestea, atunci când oficialii corupți corupți fac un concurs pe viață și pe moarte cu un boxer britanic formidabil, Twister, pentru a umili poporul chinez, maeștrii uită repede diferențele. În curând, ochii națiunii sunt pe un singur om capabil să obțină o victorie - marele maestru Ip Man!

Curiozități

Ip Man 2 is a 2010 Hong Kong biographical martial arts film loosely based on the life of Ip Man, a grandmaster of the martial art Wing Chun. A sequel to the 2008 film Ip Man, Ip Man 2 was directed by Wilson Yip and stars Donnie Yen, who reprises the leading role. Continuing after the events of the earlier film, the sequel centres on Ip's early life in British Hong Kong. He attempts to propagate his discipline of Wing Chun, but faces rivalry from other practitioners, including the local master of Hung Ga martial arts, Hung Chun-nam, and later the British boxing champion Taylor "The Twister" Miller.

Production

Ip Man 2 is the second feature film overall to be based on the life of Ip Man, following the previous film Ip Man. The sequel is the fifth film collaboration between director Wilson Yip and actor Donnie Yen. Ip Man 2 was produced by Raymond Wong and distributed by his company Mandarin Films upon its theatrical release in Hong Kong. It was the last film Wong produced under his Mandarin Films production banner.

Prior to Ip Man's theatrical release in December 2008, producer Raymond Wong announced plans to develop a sequel to the film. The sequel was intended to focus on the relationship between Ip Man and his most famed disciple Bruce Lee. In March 2009, Wong announced that the Lee character might not appear in the sequel, as producers had not fully finalized negotiations with Lee's descendants on the film rights.

Several cast members from Ip Man reprise their respective roles in the sequel. Donnie Yen reprises his role as Ip; Lynn Hung reprises her role as Cheung Wing-sing, Ip's wife, who is now pregnant with their second child. To prepare for her role in the film, Hung asked producers for a 10-pound prosthetic belly to portray the feeling of being pregnant.

Sammo Hung was announced as part of the cast in April 2009. Apart from serving as the film's martial arts choreographer, Hung appears as Hung Chun-nam, a master of the southern Chinese martial art of Hung Ga. In August 2009, it was announced that Huang Xiaoming would be playing Wong Leung, a supporting character based on Wong Shun Leung, one of Ip Man's disciples and the person responsible for mentoring Bruce Lee.

Yen and Yip reportedly conducted a worldwide casting call for a suitable candidate to play Lee, who is Ip Man's most celebrated disciple. The film briefly portrays Lee at the age of 10. Yip and Yen debated over whether to look for an actor with a solid martial arts foundation or looks.
