First Trailer for Hong Kong Remake of Linklater's 'Tape' with 3 Friends

"So tell me again what happened?" "I was trying to do the right thing." Phoenix Waters Productions and Showalker UK have debuted an official trailer for the Hong Kong re-imagining of the Linklater film Tape, set for a UK release in cinemas this August. This film premiered last year and recently screened at the 2025 Raindance Film Festival last month. When three former classmates reunite after 15 years, a buried secret resurfaces forcing them to confront the past, each other, and the silence around accountability. Directed by Bizhan Tong, co-written with original playwright Stephen Belber, the film features gripping performances from Selena Lee, Kenny Kwan, and Adam Pak, exploring power, accountability, and the painful echoes of unresolved trauma. It's a remake of the 2001 film also titled Tape directed by Richard Linklater, which originally premiered at the 2001 Sundance Film Festival. This new HK remake is also executive produced by Linklater. Sadly there's no US release date set yet, as this is only the UK trailer for its release there soon. Hopefully it'll hit theaters in the US by the end of this year. Looks like a smart new take on this Tape script. // Continue Reading ›
