The team behind the Chinese animated film "The Legend of a Rabbit 2" is using the festival to launch a trailer for a sequel to the film, Legend of a Rabbit: Martial on Fire.

The new film will reunite most of the creative and production elements from the first film which debut in 2011.

Producer Wang Dafang has also revealed a famous Chinese star who will be cast in the sequel.

"Our leading actor is Xu Zheng, we just signed him on board and he is the No. 1 star director right now in China. With the movie 'Lost in Thailand' and it has grossed $200 million (USD), so he is voicing the rabbit for us so we are very happy to have him on the cast."

Wu Qi, producer of a recent film Lemon who has recently won fame for his new promotions and marketing strategy for the film is the 3D animated movie's co-producer.

No info on a release date for the animated film as of yet.
