The Wachowski Brothers aid in ‘Ninja Assassin’ Filming!
Ricky Yune, who went toe-to-toe with Vin Diesel and Paul Walker in The Fast and The Furious, as well as battling 007 in Die Another Day, and who recently left the upcoming Street Fighter movie, has signed on to star as the antagonist in Ninja Assassin, the Wachowskis-produced action film James McTeigue is directing, says The Hollywood Reporter. Also boarding the production are Naomie Harris as the female lead and Ben Miles.
Yune has recently spoken about the role and gives a brief hint at how this ass kicking will ensue…
“Not to give too much away, (but) my character stays within what he was brought up with, and they go up against each other,” Yune said. “I’m not a heavy. The characters are ninjas, they are assassins, and there’s this mix of morality the Wachowskis are exploring.” )
