A live action web-series set in an alternate-universe, contemporary England where every neighbourhood is a fiefdom and every wrong look can end in blood.

At first glance, the Birmingham in Streets of Myth looks a lot like ours. The buildings look about right. The clothes are the same. The kids listen to hip-hop and hard rock. Birmingham's neighbourhoods are roughly the same too: Aston, Digbeth, Nechells, The Jewellery Quarter & more.

But instead of a city, they are a loose collection of gangs and petty rivalries, tied together and policed by the weakened and corrupt forces of The Crown. These gangs aren't quite like our gangs though. They don't have guns.

They have swords, spears and the ancient martial traditions of the Far East. Each neighbourhood has their own power structure, their own laws and their own fighting style.

The Streets of Myth are a place that lies at the intersection of DJ's and dim-maks, kings and graffiti, B-boys and bloodied swords.

Which mythic star of China shall we get to next? We've already covered Gordon Liu, Jackie Chan, Yuen Biao and Jimmy Wang Yu. Now we're going to feast upon the awesome ass-kickery of...

Bruce Lee, Jet Li or Stephen Chow!

(Next month we'll do a ladies only edition: Cheng Pei-Pei, Angela Mao and Michelle Yeoh)

Anyway, each of them have a ton of amazing films to choose from, but we're going to narrow it down to...
