Action film series directed by and starring Wu Jing (吴京). Wolf Warrior (2015) followed a PLA special-forces soldier; Wolf Warrior 2 (2017) relocated the hero to an African civil war and became the highest-grossing Chinese film ever with 5.7 billion yuan. The franchise's aggressive nationalism gave rise to the term 战狼外交 (Wolf Warrior diplomacy), describing a more confrontational style of Chinese foreign-ministry rhetoric from the late 2010s.
