The 2024 action film Weekend in Taipei, set in the Taiwanese capital and featuring a number of Taiwanese actors in co-starring roles, plays in Pittsburgh-area theaters from November 7 through November 14.
John Lawlor is a pit-bull DEA agent married to his job -- there's not a bad guy he can't stop, nothing he won't sacrifice to close out a case. Joey Kang is a top "Transporter" in Taipei -- fast-driving and fast-thinking, she's difficult to pin down, impossible to catch. The two of them weren't supposed to fall in love, but fate brought them together... before forces of crime and corruption tore them apart. Now, 15 years later, fate puts Joey and John on a collision course during a weekend in Taipei. And the two will discover that the only thing harder than falling in love... is falling back in love.It plays locally at the AMC Loews Waterfront, the AMC Classic Mt. Lebanon, and the AMC Classic Westmoreland, and tickets are available online.
