JuJu Chan, the martial arts champion-turned-actress, wowed at the premiere of Netflix’s Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon: Sword Of Destiny at AMC Universal City Walk in California Monday night.

JuJu Chan’s Red Carpet Look

Chan hit the red carpet for the Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon: Sword Of Destiny premiere in a bold black, metallic and sheer number.  The dress featured a black bodice with sheer cutouts, and a silver metallic skirt with sheer, floor-length overlay. Chan completed her look with zebra-print heels and statement earrings.

On the red carpet, Chan showed off her martial arts skills with a high kick in her high heels.

Talking about her casting in the TV series reboot of Ang Lee‘s Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, Chan said she was honored for the chance not only to be in the show – but to be a fighter.

“Truly honored,” she said of the casting, adding. “I feel even more honored because I was one of only four women – aside from Michelle Yeoh – cast in a fighting role.”

Yeoh, reprising her role as Yu Shu Lien, will serve as the mentor to Chan’s character, Silver Dart Shi.

“She’s one of the four swordsman recruited by Donnie Yen’s character to go on a journey with him to retrieve the Sword of Destiny,” Chan revealed about her character. “Everyone wants the sword because the one who controls it rules the martial world. So, basically, we help Yen in his journey so the bad guys don’t get the sword.”

In addition to Chan, Yeoh and Yen, Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon: Sword of Destiny will also star Glee‘s Harry Shum Jr. and Jason Scott Lee.
