世纪之交，日本侵入朝鲜，令到国内时局动荡，民不聊生。爱国青年安重根（刘五性 饰）流亡中国、俄罗斯等地，积极为抗击外国侵略做准备。1909年，爱国义士得知“乙巳保护条约”的始作俑者日本前首相、第一任日本朝鲜统监伊藤博文将赴哈尔滨与俄罗斯财政大臣会面，刺杀提议不绝于耳。安重根星夜赶赴哈尔滨，在10月26日上午9点，混迹人群的安重根向伊藤博文连开六枪，伊藤当场死亡。

《英雄安重根》制作公司“愉快想象”相关人员透露，正积极邀请范冰冰、Angelababy、唐嫣等女星出演该片，并协调具体出演日程。5月会和中国电视台共同举行公开试镜，选出参演该片的中国演员。 这部影片讲述安重根做医生时期的故事。3月底在韩国举办的公开试镜，吸引5000多人报名，其中不乏成名演员，因而受到业内外广泛关注。 制作公司称，该片男女主角将由中韩两国顶级演员出演。但由于影片内容具有特殊性和敏感性，出演的韩国演员得放弃日本市场而选择中国，男主角人选尚未确定。 至于片中饰演帮助安重根的女主角，片方基本确定启用中国人气女演员，已向范冰冰、Angelababy、唐嫣发出邀请。

At the end of the Joseon Dynasty, shortly after the Eulsa Treaty has been forced to be concluded by Ito Hirobumi(Choe Nam-hyeon) and the pro-Japanese courtiers, Japan pressures King Gojong(Kim Seung-ho) to step down from the throne. Meanwhile, An Jung-geun, who is cultivating men of ability at Samheung school, is deeply impressed by a speech made by An Chang-ho, and heads for Russia to volunteer the army fighting for independence of the country. As both a lieutenant general of the Korean militia and a commander of the Korean expeditionary force in Manchuria, he carries on the independence movement in defiance of Japanese coercion. When he and his comrades are tipped that Ito Hirobumi is going to make a tour of inspection to northern Manchuria, they plan to shoot at Ito Hirobumi, the Japanese ruler. Their attempt succeeds, but they are arrested and sent to jail. At court, An Jung-geun holds fast to his views about the cause of independence against Japan, but he is finally executed in prison.
