The first action movie Man with the Iron Fists (2012) only grossed a modest $ 20 million at the box office. The film had mixed reviews, but also got enough attention to justify the talk of a next installment of the franchise.

The sequel is directed by Roel Reine, known for his film The Scorpion King. Filming of the movie took place in Thailand. The script was written by the creator and the actor of the first movie RZA. He also appears in the sequel.

Other roles were taken by actors Dustin Nguyen, Ocean Hou (Master of Tai Chi) and the great Cary-Hiroyuki Tagawa, as well twins Andrew Lin and Grace Huang.

In this sequel Dustin Nguyen plays the man named Lee Kung. Opening the second part, RZA returns as Blacksmith. Blacksmith is injured and falls down to a stream and drifts to a small village. Kung Lee's daughter discovers him and brings him home for healing.

For a long time, Lee Kung hid himself in this small village with his wife and daughter. When his village was suppressed by a gang, who came for mineral, Blacksmith encouraged Lee Kung to reveal his identity to stand against the enemy.

Dustin Nguyen went to Thailand to film the movie in March and April. Before that, he had to prepare physically for the role.

After this project, Dustin Nguyen Returned to Vietnam to work on a new film project named “Trung So” (Win in the Raffle).
