Sadly, an icon of the martial arts world has passed today, and he will be missed as well remembered for some of the best action and martial arts films and shows in the last several decades.
I had the privilege of meeting him and talking to him several times over the years and he was always soft spoken and positive about any conversation topic.
He will be missed but remembered I am sure for years to come.
It’s always sad to hear when a true icon of martial arts and action cinema passes. From your experience, it sounds like he was not only incredibly talented on screen but also genuinely kind and thoughtful in person, which makes his loss even more poignant. His films and shows have inspired countless people over the decades, and his positive, soft-spoken nature clearly left an impression on those lucky enough to meet him. While he will be missed, his work and the memories he created will keep his legacy alive for years to come.
