The movie will be released world wide in August 2015. The initial information released about the film was that the main role was to played by Jackie Chan.
"Initially, Jackie Chan was supposed to have the main role. However, his own project, which is currently shooting in China, did not allow the actor to take part in the film by Sammo Hung." Filming "Old Soldier" will take place in Primorye from 20 to 25 September.
