Edko Films’ action thriller “The Furious” claimed the number one spot at the China box office during the June 12–14 weekend, unseating a long-running local juggernaut with an RMB76.1 million ($11.2 million) frame, according to data from Artisan Gateway.

Having debuted on June 11, the film has amassed a cumulative total of $13.9 million. Directed by action veteran Kenji Tanigaki and produced by Bill Kong, the martial arts showcase stars Xie Miao as Wang Wei, an ordinary man who unleashes a relentless rampage against a powerful child trafficking syndicate after his daughter is kidnapped. Lacking help from corrupt local authorities, his only ally is Navin (Joe Taslim), a dogged journalist searching for his own missing wife.
