Jackie Chan and Andy Lau were in the Shaolin Temple on Thursday to kick off the filming of "New Shaolin Temple".
Unlike the 1982 film which is set in Tang Dynasty, Shaolinis set in the early 20th century when China was at war. Nicholas Tse will play a wealthy young man who finds refuge in the temple after a tragic incident in his family. He meets his kung fu master, played by Jackie Chan, in the temple as well as future enemies.

"There was a scene where (Tse) was beaten up by Hu Jun for protecting Sun Yat-San and he requested for a real fighting scene," he said. "In the end, I got his close friend (a martial arts instructor) to punch him. The friend kept punching his face for more than 10 times till his face was swollen and I decided that was enough."
Peter refuted speculations about Donnie and Leon's disharmony when both actors avoided each other during the promotional events for Bodyguards and Assassins. "There is no such problem at all! Do not believe those reports! On the contrary, those with problems are not being reported!"
