A trailer has been released for the martial-arts film "Reign of Assassins", director John Woo's latest offering since his box-office favorite "Red Cliff".

Set in an ancient dynasty, the trailer offers an early peek into a secret society of assassins.

The star-studded cast is led by Malaysian-Chinese actress Michelle Yeoh ("Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon") and South Korean actor Jung Woo-Sung ("A Good Rain Knows"). Together, they portray a couple embroiled in a secret plan. The supporting cast includes a line-up of Chinese stars such as Wang Xueqi, Barbie Hsu, Shawn Yue and Leon Dai.

Hollywood-based Hong Kong director John Woo co-directed the film along with writer-filmmaker Su Chao-Pin.

The 12-million-US-dollar film is set for global release this fall.
