In the action thriller, Jun plays the leading character named Saya, a vampire who hunts and destroys demons.
Jun is best known to Chinese audiences for her role as a bizarre girl in the 2001 romantic comedy "My Sassy Girl", as well as the tragic painter in the 2006 crime film "Daisy", directed by Hong Kong filmmaker Andrew Lau.
Yet Chinese media are apparently blown away by the action stunts shown by Jun in her new film, hailing her "a likely successor to Michelle Yeoh" of "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" fame, who is also well-known for her roles in numerous other action films.
