Indonesian Actor Iko Uwais to Star in Action Movie with Jet Li and Ma Dong Seok

TEMPO.CO, Jakarta - Indonesian martial arts star Iko Uwais is reportedly returning to the big screen alongside globally renowned actors Jet Li and Ma Dong Seok in an upcoming action movie titled Nonstop. The news came from an Instagram post by the South Korean-American actor Ma Dong Seok, also known as Don Lee.

The post uploaded on Dec. 10 immediately garnered a lot of public attention, especially from Indonesian netizens, as it features animated images of Iko Uwais, Ma Dong Seok, and two other Asian action stars, Jet Li and Tony Jaa.

Not only does it show the cast, but the poster also describes each actor's respective martial arts skills. Jet Li is famous for his Kung Fu, Tony Jaa for his Muay Thai Tae, Ma Dong Seok for his boxing, and Iko Uwais for his Indonesian Silat martial arts.

Ma Dong Seok did not give any further details about the movie in his post, making the public even more curious. The caption of his post was simply “Nonstop”.

Seung Eun Kim, the South Korean animation director and executive producer, also shared the poster on his Instagram, which only added to the hype. He uploaded the animated poster with the addition of a zoomed-out version of each star without any information.

Ma Dong Seok’s Instagram post was flooded with comments and likes. One of them is Iko Uwais' wife, Audy Item, who commented with four fire emojis showing her support for her husband.

As of this afternoon, Iko Uwais has not yet uploaded anything or provided any information about the poster. However, Audy's comment on the post was enough to confirm that the Indonesian actor will be going international again with Nonstop.
