Gareth Evans, the acclaimed director behind "The Raid" series, unveiled the second official trailer for his long-awaited feature film, "Havoc," last night. This marks Evans' first feature in seven years. The new trailer also offers the first look at Golden Horse Award winner Yeo Yann Yann in her role as a formidable crime boss villain. Compared to the initial teaser, this second preview showcases a significantly greater amount of intense action and visceral, bloody sequences.
Production on the film originally wrapped in 2021, with a two-week period of reshoots conducted last year. The extensive post-production process was the primary reason for the extended timeline.
