For Simu Liu, 2021 was a great year and he showed it by sharing ten photos on his official Instagram account
about what he considered highlights of the year that he left.
He captioned the photo, "shot Arthur the King in the Dominican Republic," before going on
to tag Wahlberg and a few of his other co-stars.
The first postcard he exhibited was a recording of "Arthur the King," which he heads with Mark Whalberg.
Arthur The King tells the story (based on real events) of Mikael Lindnord.
He was the captain of the Swedish team that participated in the 2014 Huirasinchi Explorer World Cup in Ecuador,
during which they were "adopted" by a stray dog, which they called "Arthur", and that after many procedures
they could take to Scandinavia.
The adventurer's narrative was scripted by Michael Brandt.
The exciting story began after they fed the dog in one of the breaks.
From that moment the dog accompanied them during the journey until they reached the finish line.
At the end of the World Cup, they made Arthur's adaption official with the requisites and essential
documents so that they could transfer him to Sweden with them.
At the end of 2019, it was decided to make this production, which was postponed due to the pandemic.
However, last year it was filmed in the Dominican Republic.
Arthur The King seeks to raise awareness about the special relationship between dogs and humans
and the mistreatment suffered by animals in general.
For now, it looks like Arthur the King is well into post-production, meaning audiences can likely expect
a release date in late 2022 or sometime in 2023.
It'll be interesting to see how the movie adapts the source material to the big screen.
