John Cusack-Starring Chinese Thriller ‘Decoded’ Sets Global Release (EXCLUSIVE)


John Cusack and Liu Haoran head the cast of 'Decoded,' a Chinese espionage and cryptography thriller that starts its global run this weekend.

Set in the volatile era of the 1940s, “Decoded” chronicles the journey of Rong Jinzhen (played by Liu Haoran), an autistic young man with an exceptional talent for mathematics. In other key roles, “Decoded” boasts veteran Chinese actor Chen Daoming (“Coming Home,” “Aftershock”), Daniel Wu (“Into the Badlands,” Westworld”) and Yu Feihong. Chen, who is known for the “Detective Chinatown” series of film blockbusters and was a producer of last summer’s $490 million-grossing smash “Lost in the Stars,” has reportedly called “Decoded” his creative peak, though he has also suggested that he is “standing on the shoulders of literary giants.”
