Ken Watanabe ("Batman Begins", "The Last Samurai") and Shu Qi will team with Wesley Snipes in the upcoming action-adventure "Chasing the Dragon" reports Production Weekly.

Snipes plays FBI Agent Bo Monroe, who teams up with Song, a poverty-stricken Asian girl played by Qi. Together they travel from China Town to Taiwan on a relentless pursuit of a ruthless Asian drug lord, Jimmy Jiro (Watanabe).

Chris Nahon will direct from a script written by W. Peter Iliff ("Patriot Games", "Point Break"). Production begins next month on location in Taiwan and Toronto.
