Inspired by Hong Kong mafia movies from the 1980s like the God of Gamblers series, actor and director Suppakit Tangthatswasd (Man) came up with the idea for his directorial debut, Si Riang Sian Tot (4 Kings).
Hitting local cinemas on January 30, 4 Kings is an action-packed comedy starring well-known actor Shahkrit Yamnarm as a third-rate magician who is forced to help a group of con artists with the biggest casino scam of all time.
Student Weekly recently went along to the 4 Kings press conference at Siam Center to chat with Man and Shahkrit about the making of the movie.
