2007 film by Philip Atwell
War is a 2007 American action film directed by Philip G. Atwell in his directorial debut and featuring stage combat choreographed by Corey Yuen. The film stars Jet Li and Jason Statham. Jason Statham plays an FBI agent determined to take down a mysterious assassin known as Rogue (played by Jet Li), after his partner is murdered.
War features the second collaboration between Jet Li and Jason Statham, reuniting them for the first time since 2001 film The One.
War's working title was Rogue; it was changed to avoid conflict with another film with the same name. It was re-titled as Rogue Assassin in New Zealand, Japan, Hong Kong, Singapore, India, Australia, the Philippines and several European countries.
The film was released in the United States on August 24, 2007, receiving negative reviews from critics and grossed $40.7 million at the box office against the $25 million budget.
