The Great Wall is the most expensive movie ever filmed entirely in China with a whopping 135 million dollar budget. Fun fact – Max Brooks’ gets a credit on this one considering he wrote a short story called Great Wall, which was a companion piece to his World War Z saga and was about how the Great Wall of China was built to keep zombies out. The monsters in this trailer below are definitely NOT zombies.
