The first official trailer for The Furious has been unveiled, delivering a gripping preview packed with intense fight sequences and adrenaline filled moments. The film is scheduled to hit cinemas on May 29 2026 and is already generating strong buzz among action movie fans worldwide.
Directed by Kenji Tanigaki, the project blends elements of classic Asian action cinema with modern storytelling. While this marks only his third directorial venture, Tanigaki is widely respected in the industry for his work as a stunt coordinator and fight choreographer on major productions including high profile Hong Kong and international films.
The movie stars Xie Miao in the lead role alongside Joe Taslim, with additional performances from Yayan Ruhian and Yanin Vismitananda. The cast brings together some of the most recognised talents in the Asian action genre.
The storyline follows a desperate father searching for his kidnapped daughter after she is taken by an international crime syndicate. With the help of a journalist who carries secrets of his own, he navigates a dangerous underworld filled with brutal confrontations in a race against time.
The film made its debut at the Toronto International Film Festival where it received an enthusiastic response from audiences. It was featured in the Midnight Madness section and emerged as one of the standout titles, earning a runner up position in the People’s Choice Award category.
Following its successful premiere, Lionsgate secured global distribution rights for the film across most international markets. With its combination of powerful performances and expertly choreographed action, The Furious is shaping up to be one of the most anticipated action releases of the year.
