Production[edit]
Wolf Warrior was Directed by Wu Jing and played by Wu Jing[1], Yu Nan[5], Scott Atkins[6] and so on. Wolf Warrior took six years of production and was released in China in 2015.
In 2015, Lu Jianmin started the Wolf Warrior[7] film series as a producer together with Wu Jing.
As a military lover, Lu Jianmin[8] has dreamed of becoming a soldier since he was a child, but he failed to become a soldier because he failed to meet the physical examination. But because of his military passion, he had always wanted to make a military film. Having met Wu Jing at a party, they became friends with the same hobby and often talked about military topics. Later, Wu Jing filmed I Am a Special Forces 2 [9]after 18 months of training in the army. During this period, the two sides have been planning to shoot a film on military themes. After making full preparations, the project Wolf Warrior was launched. Lu Jianmin likes reading online novels with military themes. He gained inspiration from the novel and contacted the authors, inviting them to become writers.
On June 19, 2016, Wolf Warrior 2 was officially started production at a film and television base in Huairou, Beijing[10].
Production team: Frank Griero, who plays the villain in the Captain America [11]series, and Sam Hargrave[12], who is an action director of films like Captain America 3[13], and Task Force X[14].
Tidbits[edit]
The six-minute underwater opening scene used a shot to the end, shooting the scene for six months. Actors and photographers spend nearly 10 hours in the water every day.[15]
On August 23, 2016, filming the "Tank rolling car" scene, Wu Jing drove a tank alone, shuttling through six tanks, rolling over a truck.In just 10 seconds, the car instantly became a pile of scrap iron. This was the first time that a domestic actor personally drove a tank over a car.[15]
During filming, nearly 100 car models, two model tanks weighing 20 tons and one aircraft model were blown up.
In the film, Wu Jing holds the national flag through the war area, which is not a fabrication.
It was the largest evacuation of overseas Chinese citizens since 1949. It was also a big rescue of the four major forces, sea, land, air and army. This is even more a huge overseas rescue operation for Chinese citizens.[16]
On August 15, 2017, Wolf Warrior 2 was confirmed to be postponed to September 28, running for 2 months[17].
Wolf Warrior 2 was re-released on September 19, 2018, for a one-month [18]run.[19]

Commentary[33][34][edit]
One reason for the enthusiastic response compared to the first Wolf Warrior film is its improved action scenes. The movie, which is entirely privately funded, has also been lauded for its attention to detail and reportedly features close replicas of many of the latest weapons and artillery used by the Chinese army.—BBC News
“69% of TOMATOMETER, 75% Audience Score. Wolf Warrior 2 is a gargantuan box office phenomenon that most westerners will never even hear about. And I love that part of this story. I just wish Wolf Warrior 2 were a better movie to back up that exciting box office.”- The Top Critic from Rotten Tomatoes
“The movie is a window into state propaganda — and the population’s beliefs, too.”—National Review
“The breathless pacing thankfully doesn’t allow much time for viewers to ponder the plot holes or worry about character development, although the two-hour running time (more than 30 minutes longer than the original pic) results in overkill fatigue. As with Jackie Chan’s efforts, the outtakes during the end credits indicate that the film must have been a lot of fun to make, at least when the performers weren’t getting hurt. And in case fans were worried, a post-credits sequence sets up the inevitable sequel, which, they won’t be surprised to learn, will be entitled Wolf Warrior 3.”—The Hollywood Reporter
"Wolf Warrior 2 is for anyone who wishes more modern action movies were like bad Rambo rip-offs, only minus Stallone's charms, and amplified by Michael Bay-levels of soul-dead military/gun fetishism. Jing will get your blood up, but not in a good way.” —Rogerbert
According to Stanley Rosen, a professor at the University of Southern California who studies Chinese society and cinema, Wolf Warrior 2 imitate Hollywood type to build individualistic emotion. But in China, national films promote patriotism through building collective consciousness among individuals, groups and countries. So some foreign mainstream media like BBC can not accept Chinese superheroes.[35]
The excellent box office of Wolf Warrior 2 means that Hollywood model films are successful, and it also means that China is more mature in making films. However, we need to look at the box office results more objectively. The success of Wolf Warrior 2 is mainly a typical Chinese phenomenon,[36] and its box office results are not reflected abroad. Wolf Warrior 2 has not achieved commercial success in overseas markets, so the Chinese film industry and building Chinese superheroes still have a long way to go.[37]
