Story Snapshot

As Tang Sanzang and his disciples continue their pilgrimage to retrieve the sacred Buddhist scriptures, they enter the domain of the powerful White Bone Demon. Disguising herself in several forms to deceive the holy monk, the cunning demon drives a wedge between Sun Wukong and his master, forcing the Monkey King to defend both his companions and his honor against an enemy unlike any they have faced before.

Why Collectors Pick It

The Monkey King 2 is remembered for bringing one of the best-known stories from Journey to the West to the screen—the legendary Three Battles with the White Bone Demon. Collectors also seek it out for Aaron Kwok's acclaimed first performance as Sun Wukong after succeeding Donnie Yen in the role, Gong Li's commanding portrayal of the White Bone Demon, and Sammo Hung's spectacular martial arts choreography. Blending mythology, fantasy, and large-scale action, it remains one of the most ambitious Chinese fantasy adventures of its era.
