A new song from Leehom Wang and Tan Weiwei was released on Tuesday to promote Zhang Yimou's monster adventure film "The Great Wall."

"Bridge of Fate" was composed by pop singer Wang with lyrics written by Vincent Fang, a long time collaborator of singer-songwriter Jay Chou. Female rocker Tan Weiwei joined Wang for a duet, but with two different vocal styles. Wang sang pop, while Tan performed a traditional Qinqiang - a folk Chinese opera style from Shaanxi Province.

The two singers hoped to combine the old and new, oriental and western, folk and pop styles in the very same song.

A music video was also unveiled. "The Great Wall," Zhang's most expensive Chinese-American co-production to date, will hit domestic screens on Dec. 16, 2016.
