đŸ„ŠHit N Fun (2025): Cast, Plot, Release Date, Review & Where to Watch – Louis Koo & Gigi Leung Step Back Into the Ring

Hong Kong cinema is bringing back the adrenaline this Lunar New Year with Hit N Fun (臚時æ±ș鏄), a high-energy action-comedy that mixes martial arts, family drama, and unexpected humor. Directed by Albert Kai-kwong Mak, the film stars Louis Koo, Gigi Leung, Louise Wong, Chrissie Chau, Tony Wu, and German Cheung, making it one of the most star-studded Hong Kong productions of 2025.


As a spiritual successor to Mak’s Rob N Roll (2024), this new film dives deep into themes of redemption, rivalry, and resilience—all while delivering knockout action sequences and laugh-out-loud comedy.


📖 The Story – When Life Becomes a Boxing Match


The film follows Carrie Mok (Gigi Leung), a washed-up actress whose life takes a chaotic turn after her niece Elsa (Louise Wong) challenges Surewin (Chrissie Chau), a fiery Muay Thai champion, to a boxing match. What begins as a viral scandal spirals into a journey of training, discipline, and personal discovery.


Guiding them through the chaos is Bruce Chung (Louis Koo), Carrie’s husband and a once-glorious Muay Thai master. Together, they navigate the tangled world of broken dreams, viral fame, and the brutal beauty of combat sports.


đŸ’„ From viral videos that spark unexpected opportunities to emotional rivalries inside the ring, Hit N Fun turns the boxing arena into a stage for reconciliation, second chances, and family honor.


🌟 Cast & Characters


  • Louis Koo as Bruce Chung – a faded martial arts master seeking redemption.

  • Gigi Leung as Carrie Mok – a former actress rediscovering her spark.

  • Louise Wong as Elsa Lam – a determined advertising executive stepping into the ring.

  • Chrissie Chau as Surewin Suen – a Muay Thai champion caught between legacy and reputation.

  • Tony Wu as Stallone Ko – a struggling boxer fighting his own losing streak.

  • German Cheung as Arnold Chan – Bruce’s former disciple and rival gym owner.

  • Peter Chan as Daniel Wu – Elsa’s ex-boyfriend, tangled in the web of rivalries.


The film also features cameos and supporting roles that enrich its humor and heart, including Harriet Yeung, Philip Ng, and Vivian Chan.


🎬 Behind the Gloves – Production Journey


Director Albert Mak fast-tracked Hit N Fun after the success of Rob N Roll, crafting it as a Chinese New Year release to fill the festive season gap.


📍 Filming took place across Hong Kong and Macau between October and November 2024, wrapping post-

production in record time.


đŸŽ¶ The theme song, Pick Me Up, performed by Tony Wu and cast members, adds an upbeat, modern flavor to the film’s vibrant energy.

  • Hong Kong Release: January 28, 2025 (Lunar New Year – Year of the Snake)

  • China Release: September 19, 2025


At its Hong Kong release, Hit N Fun quickly became the highest-grossing Lunar New Year film of 2025, though its total box office performance didn’t quite meet expectations. Still, its mix of humor, action, and heartfelt storytelling struck a chord with festival audiences.


đŸ„Š Why You Should Watch Hit N Fun
