Zhang Jin was Zhang Ziyi's stunt double in Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon (2000) and was a stunt performer in Hero (2002). He won Best Supporting Actor at the Hong Kong Film awards for his portrayal of Ma San in Wong Kar-Wai's tribute to Ip Man, The Grandmaster (201. He was Ghost Eyes in From Vegas To Macau (2014) and Wu Long in the new Wong Fei-Hong movie, Rise Of The Legend (2014). He played the young Mue Che in Shaolin vs. Evil Dead: Ultimate Power (2006).
And from the SPL 2 stills and posters, it looks like Zhang Jin is Master of Dapper Fist.

SPL 2: Character Posters! Panthers! Wolves! Simon Yam!
Holy Cats, check out these sweet character posters for SPL 2: A Time For Consequences! They feature Tony Jaa, Wu Jing, Louis Koo and Zhang Jin.
(And yes, we have it on good authority that Tony Jaa and Wu Jing fight, though they don't in these posters).
And in case you were thinking, "I thought Simon Yam was in SPL 2!" Well, we have this poster of Simon Yam from a different set of SPL 2 character posters (ones without cool panthers and wolves). Looks like Mr. Yam will be in the next season of Hannibal...
Or perhaps Vampire Prosecutor.

WHAT WE DO IN THE SHADOWS: The Case of the Sexy Vampires
![]() |
| Vampire Prosecutor is prosecuting so hard right now. |
To recap, Count Orlok was declared most adorably terrifying vampire, while certain New Zealand vampires declared Deacon from What We Do In The Shadows the sexiest. Dracula continues to maintain he's sexiest.
Vampire Prosecutor Min ruled both Carmilla and Countess Bathory "unsexiest" by default because they disappeared during arbitartion. Human servant Renfield testified in a sworn affadavit that Carmilla and the Countess had slipped away to one of the Countess' special rooms for "special time."

| "special time" is in session. |
However, actor and MM Alumnus Simon Yam has declared himself not only the sexiest vampire, but also the most handsome, most amazingly dressed vampire and King of the Vampires. And has submitted the following evidence in support of his claim.
But can the so-called King of the Vampires compete with this Prince of Darkness?

| Vampires are convinced this is a sexy look. |
Or these hot guys?

Or come within three miles of this?

| Could anyone come within three miles of this? |
After reviewing seven hours of footage and brooding over the case on his favorite rooftop, Vampire Prosecutor Min he ruled that he himself is not only Sexiest Male Vampire, but Sexiest Vampire.

| "Case closed," Vampire Prosecutor says, slipping on his aviators. |
Decide for yourself and feel the sexy power of Deacon with the last two screenings of What We Do In The Shadows!
