  1. It certainly looks like Netflix has recognised Asia as a growing market and Wu Assassins will fit nicely in both Asia and the USA / European markets. Maybe Wu Assassins will show what potential Iron Hand had to offer with a higher quality of martial arts stunts, which viewers come to expect from Hong Kong .
