Malezijski povijesni spektakl u režiji Yusrya A. Halima. Sudeći prema promo teaseru koji izgleda fenomenlano, film obećava mnoštvo spektakularnih masovnih akcijskih sekvenci koje uključuju i mačevanje i borbu prsa o prsa, te fenomenalne koreografije za koje će biti zaslužan Jackie Chan stunt team iz Hong Konga. Budžet filma iznosi između 5-10 mil.$, a u gl. ulogama će se pojaviti Malezijski glumci Stephen Rahman Hughes, Gavin Rees StenHouse, Craig Fong, Deborah Henry, Datuk Rahim Razali i Khir Rahman, te Kineska glumica Jeng Lu.
Film će uglavnom biti snimljen na engleskom, i samim time usmjeren na internacionalno tržište, te ga je navodno već otkupilo čak 25 zemalja, između ostaloga i Velika Britanija, Francuska, Njemačka, Rusia i Amerika. Premjera filma je predviđena za Prosinac 2010. Godine.

PROMO TEASER

RADNJA
Based loosely on the 16th century historical document entitled ‘The Malay Annals’, ’The Chronicles of Merong Mahawangsa’ is an action-packed epic feature film, with mythical characters, magical moments and dazzling visual-effects sequences. Merong Mahawangsa was a descendant of Alexander the Great, a renowned naval captain and traveler who came to Asia several hundred years ago.
The year is 120 AD… a time when the Roman Empire is at the height of its power, during the reign of Hadrian – one of the Five Good Emperors. Meanwhile in China, the Han Dynasty is firmly cemented as the ruling empire and is expanding into Central Asia… one hundred years before the period of the Three Kingdoms.
As the Roman fleet did their repairs and traded in Goa, they asked Merong Mahawangsa to escort a Roman prince to Southeast Asia, to wed a beautiful Chinese princess from the Han Dynasty. The Chinese princess and the Roman prince are supposed to meet halfway and be married on neutral grounds.
However, the pirate nation of Geruda had other plans. They decided t kidnap the Chinese princess and use her as ransom. En route to the Straits of Melaka, Merong Mahawangsa’s fleet was attacked by Geruda’s forces while stopping at a small island to replenish supplies.
Will Merong Mahawangsa be able to rescue the Princess and re-unite her with her betrothed in a marriage that is set to bring together two great civilizations from the East and West?
