Photo Flash: First Look at Daniel Wu in AMC's New Martial Arts Series INTO THE BADLANDS

AMC released today first-look photos from the set of its new martial arts series, "Into the Badlands," currently shooting in New Orleans. Check them out below!

In a land controlled by feudal barons, "Into the Badlands" tells the story of a ruthless, well-trained warrior named Sunny (Daniel Wu) and a young boy named M.K. (Aramis Knight) who embark on a journey across a dangerous land to find enlightenment.

AMC has ordered six, one-hour episodes for "Into the Badlands," which will premiere in late 2015. The project was created by writers/showrunners Al Gough and Miles Millar ("Shanghai Noon," "Smallville"). They'll serve as executive producers along with David Dobkin ("The Judge," "Wedding Crashers," "Shanghai Knights"), Oscar-nominated producers Stacey Sher and Michael Shamberg ("Pulp Fiction," "Contagion"), and Stephen Fung and Wu ("Tai Chi Zero").

From AMC Studios, "Into the Badlands" will be distributed internationally by Entertainment One Television (eOne).
