Peter expressed that he's headache about this matter, he said: "The trailer leaked from Thailand, I happened to be in Thailand at that time, this make me as the most suspicious person.

At the press conference, Peter sing praise that Andy is the most experienced actor, Jet's performance is the most surprising of the movie and collaboration with Xu Jinglei is very relaxed.

In the short one and a half minute trailer, war battles are used as background. Peter introduce that this will also be the opening scene of the movie as it's because of this battle that bond the brotherhood of Andy, Jet and Takeshi. The three male leads' dirtied image is completely different from their previous movies. It's quite a common sight of Jet wearing the armor, a moustached Takeshi has no images of his clean handsome looks, even the mostached Andy whom was riding on the horse get a close up but reporters need to watch the trailer three times before confirming it's him.
In the trailer, Takeshi, Andy and Jet had different timing of close up, the reporters were wondering if this is the ranking of the actors.

Xu Jinglei was nowhere in sight in the trailer, Peter explains that he was trying to express the battle scenes in his first trailer, if to add on any love scenes, it would be at least 3 minutes.
