Premier Asia was a UK DVD distribution company, operating between the years 2003 - 2008. It was owned by Contender Entertainment Group [1] until the summer of 2007 when Contender was purchased by Entertainment One.[2] Premier Asia is the sister company of Hong Kong Legends, and whilst that company specialised only in Hong Kong films, Premier Asia encompassed films from all of the major film making centres of Asia (outside of mainland China), specifically Japan, South Korea and Thailand.[3]

In keeping with the Hong Kong Legends DVD format, many of the earlier releases included audio commentaries from Hong Kong cinema expert, producer and screenwriter Bey Logan, he is here partnered for many releases with Asian cinema expert Mike Leeder.
