A teaser for Hong Kong director Wong Kar-wai's first kung fu film "The Grandmasters" was released on Tuesday showing scenes featuring Korean actress Song Hye-kyo.

Photos and a 3-minute trailer show some of the leading actors in the Chinese-speaking world such as Tony Leung, Zhang Ziyi and Chang Chen, along with Song.

Dressed in a traditional Chinese qipao, Song appears both melancholic and mysterious to build curiosity about her role in the film.

"The Grandmasters", which Wong has spent a decade getting on to the big screen, is a biographical portrayal of Yip Man, the man who taught Bruce Lee kung fu.

It will be released worldwide on Dec. 18.
