The epic legendary film "Edge of the world", starring Ho Chaoyi and Jonathan Rhys Meyers and Dominic Monaghan, is being screened in the UK and the UNITED States, and is also on major video platforms and has received good reputation. On June 28, the filmmakers issued a public statement about copyright infringement to resist piracy and call for respect for intellectual property rights.
As of the time of the announcement, the film had not yet set an official release date in Asia and had no official Chinese name. But not only has the film been viewed or downloaded without authorization on various video media platforms in Asia, but the film has been titled The Maharajah. The statement said that anyone who illegally uploaded the movie to a video media platform would be a copyright infringement and piracy, and it would also be illegal for a platform in Asia to provide download or watch the movie. The Producer has entrusted the law firm to take necessary legal action against the relevant personnel operating such illegal video media platforms and the relevant personnel uploading the film to these illegal video media platforms.
The statement also called on audiences to work together to combat piracy: "I believe that moviegoers love movies and realize that watching movies on such illegal video media platforms can destroy and harm the entire film industry." I hope that the audience understands that the production of this film is not only the cost, but also the result of the hard work of the entire production team. Therefore, we urge audiences to respect intellectual property rights and wait for the film to be officially released in cinemas or licensed video media platforms in Asia before watching the film. ”
