Well they do say “better late than never.” Over two years after pretty much the rest of the world got to see it, Jet Li’s superb period epic The Warlords is finally arriving on U.S shores this coming March.

Set in the midst of war and political upheaval during the Taiping Rebellion of the 1860s, Li stars as General Pang, who barely survives a brutal massacre of his fellow soldiers by playing dead, and joins a band of bandits led by Er Hu (Andy Lau) and Wu Yang (Takeshi Kaneshiro). After fighting back attackers from an helpless village, the three men take an oath to become "blood brothers," pledging loyalty to one another until death, but things quickly turn sour and the three men become embroiled in a web of political deceit, and a love triangle between Pang, Er Hu and a beautiful courtesan (Wu Jing-Lei).

Warlords premieres on VOD, XBOX LIVE and AMAZON on March 3rd, 2010 and in theatres April 2nd, 2010. Check out the newly released U.S trailer, in lovely hi-def Quicktime here. Read our review of Warlords here.
