Okay, I saw this trailer in the theatre and knew for sure I'd go see it once it came out. I love over the top unrealistic action movies.
Now, the quick glimpses in the trailer don't give you too good a look at the leading lady, but I really think its Hong Kong actress Shu Qui (or Shu Qi or Hsu Qi, I've seen it spelled a couple different ways).
Shu Qui, for those who don't recognize the name was the girl in Jackie Chan's movie "Gorgeous", she also played the girl Muse in "Storm Riders". Also the ninja girl in "Man Called Hero".
Here's some pics from the some website:

Hmmm....now that I think about it. If I were to make a live action D&D movie that starred the iconic characters from the PHB, Shu Qi might be an interesting unconventional casting choice for Lidda. Don't ya think? Maybe? She's already tiny to begin with. Not much CGI shrinking needs to be done for her. Heh heh.
Anyways, "The Transporter" looks to be cool. The only negative thing I would have to say about it at the moment is that the title sounds kinda silly. Makes me think its about a guy who goes around teleporting people.
