The Thunderstorm is a 1957 Hong Kong historical drama film starring Bruce Lee and directed by Ng Wui. The film is based on the play of the same name by Chinese dramatist Cao Yu. Originally filmed and released in Cantonese in 1957, The Thunderstorm was dubbed into Mandarin for re-release during the 1970s in Hong Kong when Bruce Lee shot to superstardom during the time when Mandarin films dominated Hong Kong cinema.

Production

In August 1956, The Thunderstorm was announced as one of the first two productions of Wa Kiu Film Company, alongside Fate in Tears and Laughter (1957). Ng Wui was set to direct, with Wu leading an ensemble cast that included Cheung Ying, Yin Pak, Mui Yee, Man-lei Wong, Lee Ching, Lo Tun, Yip Ping, and Yuet-ching Lee in lead roles. Pre-production lasted about a hundred days, during which the script underwent eight rewrites.

Filming began later that year, with production entering its final stages by December. The shoot lasted around a month and involved a crew of 126 people, considered large-scale for that time. Location shooting took place at Nam Sang Wai and the Tsui Sing Lau Pagoda in Yuen Long, as well as Castle Peak in Tuen Mun.
