HONG KONG, Oct 6, 2022 - (ACN Newswire) - Refresh Industries Limited and Octagon Metatainment Limited unboxed the WARRIOR in Warriors of Future in real life at K11 Arthouse, Hong Kong!

Produced by One Cool Film Production Limited and Distributed by One Cool Pictures Limited, Hong Kong sci-fi action epic, Warriors of Future, is the first film in Asia to utilise Proto Hologram Technology in bringing its characters to life beyond the silver screen. The unveiling of the 4K life-sized Warrior, created by the One Cool Picture's CGI team, Fatface Productions, can be witnessed at K11 Arthouse, Hong Kong.
