The picture will be set up as one of the first pictures from Threshold Global Studios, a new company involving Kasanoff’s Threshold Entertainment and Wu’s Seven Stars Entertainment. “Tetris,” envisaged as a three part franchise picture will shoot partly in China and feature Chinese cast in prominent positions. “Threshold Global will make cross-cultural movies for the global market,“ said Kasanoff and Wu, in a joint statement. “We are very familiar with this concept,” Kasanoff told Variety. “’Mortal Kombat’ was based on Asian mythology.”
