It took 'months' to convince Donnie Yen to direct and star in The Prosecutor
Briefly

The Prosecutor is a significant shift for Donnie Yen, who is known for action films, yet showcases his ability to blend action with courtroom drama.
Yen initially hesitated to take on The Prosecutor, stating, 'I have no idea how to do this movie. I do action movies. That's my world.'
Despite its shortcomings in exploring complex themes, The Prosecutor effectively combines action and drama, with high-octane sequences enhancing the courtroom narrative.
Yen reveals that his friends at the production company believed he could bring authenticity to the role, influencing his decision to take on the project.
