Fox Hunt is a 2025 Chinese action-crime film directed by Leo Zhang, inspired by real cross-border operations to recover assets from financial fugitives. Running 106 minutes, it follows an elite Chinese detective unit as they pursue a master fraudster who has been hiding in Paris for seven years.

What is Fox Hunt about?

Dai Yichen spent years orchestrating one of the largest financial fraud schemes out of Shanghai, then vanished — until he reappears in the streets of Paris. Chinese economic-crime investigator Ye Jun assembles the Fox Hunt Team, a specialist unit authorized to operate beyond domestic borders. Their assignment: locate the fugitive, freeze his hidden assets, and bring him to account. But tracking a man skilled at disappearing is treacherous work, and the team soon finds that somewhere between the boulevards of Paris and the back channels of international finance, hunter and hunted can swap roles with alarming speed.

Cast & crew

Director Leo Zhang guides a cast anchored by Tony Leung Chiu-wai, one of Hong Kong cinema's most acclaimed performers, known for his nuanced, restrained screen presence. Duan Yihong and Erica Xia-Hou round out the Chinese investigative unit, while Olga Kurylenko, Olivier Rabourdin, and José Garcia ground the European side of the story with international credibility.

Context & significance

For Persian-speaking viewers and the Iranian diaspora, Fox Hunt carries a particular resonance: the story of a fugitive hiding wealth abroad while a dedicated task force hunts across borders echoes themes that many diaspora communities recognize from news cycles and family conversations. Chinese crime-thrillers have attracted a growing global following among Iranian audiences who enjoy tightly plotted procedurals with real-world stakes. Fox Hunt is available on K-Time with Persian DUB, making it fully accessible without needing to follow subtitles — an ideal pick for a family evening or a night when you want gripping drama in your own language.
