The producers of Wong Kar-Wai's martial-arts film "The Grandmasters" ("Yi Dai Zong Shi") have released two posters of the film featuring lead actors Tony Leung and Zhang Ziyi, Sohu.com reports.

Leung plays Yip Man in Wong's take on this master of the martial art of Wing Chun, who is better known as Bruce Lee's mentor. Yip Man's story has been popularized in recent years in several other biopics, the most famous being Wilson Yip's "Ip Man" series starring Donnie Yen.

Unlike Yen who himself is a trained martial artist, Leung had to learn Wing Chun from scratch, according to Sohu.com. But what moviegoers will see in "The Grandmasters" is a Leung who imparts the essence of Wing Chun, said Yuen Woo-Ping, the film's action choreographer who was the stunt advisor of the "Kill Bill" series.

Another poster shows Zhang Ziyi in a kung fu position, although her character is still under wraps.

Both Zhang and Leung have sustained injuries during the filming with Zhang's injury forcing her withdrawal from the film "Snow Flower and the Secret Fan".

Information about the release date of "The Grandmasters" was not included on the posters.
