Young and Dangerous hero Ekin Cheng breaks the speed limit in the entertaining racing drama The Legend of Speed . Directed by Andrew Lau ( Infernal Affairs , The Storm Riders ), the film stars Cheng as Sky, a rebellious street racer whose cocky demeanor and sometimes brash behavior make him a prime candidate for a fall. Sky receives his comeuppance when a race against ex-con Fung (Simon Yam) results in tragic consequences. Exiled to Thailand, Sky meets his wayward father (Blacky Ko), who helps Sky reconnect to the philosophical side of his racing talent. Reinvigorated and wiser, Sky plans to return to Hong Kong for a rematch with Fung, only to discover that his past has caught up with him, perhaps fatally. Featuring an all-star cast of Hong Kong entertainment stars, including Cecilia Cheung ( The Promise ), Kelly Lin ( After This, Our Exile ), Patrick Tam ( Beast Cops , and Moses Chan (TVB's Heart of Greed ), Legend of Speed features thrilling racing sequences and a cool central performance by Ekin Cheng, whose string of late nineties box-office hits made him Hong Kong's most bankable young actor. The film was a large success, pulling in over HK$19 million at the box office during the Christmas 1999 movie season, paving the way for director Andrew Lau's later racing blockbuster Initial D .
