Cast member Chow Yun-Fat is featured on a poster of the live-action film "Dragonball Evolution". The upcoming Hollywood adaptation of the popular comic book "Dragon Ball" released a trailer and promotional posters featuring the lead actors on Wednesday.
"Dragonball Evolution", the adaptation, stars Canadian actor Justin Chatwin as the main character, Goku, and American star James Marsters as the antagonist, Lord Piccolo.
