Cast

Production

The principal photography on the film began on March 9, 2015, in Liangjiang International Cinema of Chongqing city.[4]

The film was shot on locations in Chongqing, Shanghai, Tianjin and Beijing.

Poster controversy

The distributors issued promotional posters that individually featured Mao Zedong, Winston Churchill, Franklin Roosevelt, and Joseph Stalin. Chinese internet users have questioned the inclusion of Mao, instead of Chiang Kai-shek, Generalissimo of the Republic of China, in the posters, since Chiang was present at the Cairo Conference, but Mao was not. A Global Times editorial called the promotional move "inappropriate".[5][6][7]

Release

Theatrical release will be on September 3, 2015.
