Let the Bullets Fly, an all-star Chinese gangster film directed by Jiang Wen, will hit domestic cinemas on December 16, its investor Ma Ke has announced.

The trailer has premiered, showing box-office favorites Ge You and Chow Yun-Fat in a battle of wits during war-plagued 1920s China.

The film is about a confrontation between two gangs fighting for power in a remote town.

Other cast members include Hu Jun, Chen Kun, Carina Lau and Zhou Yun.

Let the Bullets Fly is among a long list of anticipated Chinese films set to jam-pack this year's New Year season. Other flicks include Zhang Yimou's Under the Hawthorn Tree, Feng Xiaogang's If You Are the One II, Chen Kaige's Sacrifice, and Wong Kar-Wai's The Grand Master.
