Chinese blockbuster film Let the Bullets Fly has attracted attention of US producers. According to Ma Ke, "three or four" Hollywood companies want to buy the film's copyright for adaptation.
Offering more than $10 million, the foreign buyers still want Jiang Wen, director and leading actor, to direct the film's overseas version, Ma said.
Since it was released in mid-December, the film has generated more than 500 million yuan, or about $75.7 million, in ticket revenue.
