Legendary martial artist and actor Sammo Hung has signed up to star in a new Hong Kong movie.

When asked why he is back to work – especially after his knee surgery in 2017 – the 69-year-old actor told the Hong Kong media: “No money! The most important thing is the production team is willing to pay me!"
