Protégé de la Rose Noire

Protégé de la Rose Noire (Cantonese: 見習黑玫瑰), also known as Black Rose Academy, is a 2004 Hong Kong action comedy film co-directed by Wong Chun-chun and Donnie Yen. It follows Jeffrey Lau's 1997 film Black Rose II as the last in a series of updated Black Rose films but features a different plot and no returning cast members. All of these films are ultimately inspired by Yuen Chor's 1965 film Black Rose and its sequels. The film was a vehicle for the Cantopop duo Twins, who had previously starred in the 2003 vampire film The Twins Effect that was also co-directed by Donnie Yen. Co-director Donnie Yen, who also functioned as action director, had previously had a small role in Black Rose II as a boxing school owner. Donnie Yen's sister Chris Yen plays the role of Enchantress, a gang member in a schoolgirl uniform.
