BEIJING, Aug. 16 (Xinhua) -- "The Mystery of Dragon Seal," also known as "Viy 2," a fantasy adventure film co-produced by China Film Co., Ltd. and Russian Film Group, opened in Chinese mainland theaters on Friday.

Starring Jackie Chan, Arnold Schwarzenegger and Jason Flemyng, the film is a sequel to the 2014 Russian film "Viy," which is loosely based on the Nikolai Gogol story about an eighteenth-century English traveler setting out on a journey to map the uncharted lands of Transylvania.

"Viy," also known as "Forbidden Kingdom," was not released in China.
