Legend of the Red Dragon (Legend of the Red Dragon was the title used for the United States video release; ; also known as Hung Hei-Koon: Shaolin's Five Founders, Legend of the Future Shaolin, and The New Legend of Shaolin) is a
1994 kung fu film from
Hong Kong by Wushu and international film star
Jet Li. It was directed by
Jing Wong, and
Corey Yuen, and produced by Helen Li,
Jet Li, and Wai Sum Shia. This film showcases Hung Hei-Kwun's exploits as a
rebel against the
Qing government. Unlike Li's
Fong Sai-yuk movies, the film has a much darker tone. Hung (Li) hardly ever shows affection, even to his son, and speaks in the same tone throughout the movie. The same applies to his son, who mirrors the little boy from Lone Wolf and Cub from his hair to his facial expressions. This is one of two movies in which Miu Tse and
Jet Li play a father-son duo, the other being
My Father is a Hero
