Sounds interesting, Australian release date available?

Not sure yet as there's not even a US release date as of yet.

Another fun fact: In 1976, Chuck Norris had a sparring session with 1970s martial arts action star John Liu and the winner was determined by audience applause. Liu ended up beating Norris.

Liu would be known for "The Secret Rivals" and 2 years ago, his unfinished 1984 film "New York Ninja" was released after a 2-year project to do all post-production with Liu's blessing although he didn't want to be involved.

Must've been against his reflection in the mirror.
