Bruce Lee Trivia
|
- Is often honored in video games. In Mortal Kombat games, the character Liu Kang was an obvious tribute to Lee. Then, in Super Street Fighter II, a character named Fei Long was introduced, also bearing incredible resemblance in both looks and fighting style to Bruce Lee. A lesser game, World Heroes, also copied Lee as Kim Dragon. And lastly, the Tekken games did the tribute to him not once, but twice. First with Marshall Law, then with his son Forrest Law for the third installment of Tekken. Along with this, his fighting style was honored in Virtua Fighter with Jacky Bryant and in Dead Or Alive with Jann Lee.
- Earned $30,000 for his first two feature films.
- His first major U.S. project was the role of Kato in the television series "The Green Hornet" (1966). He joked that he got this role because he was the only Oriental actor who could properly pronounce the name "Britt Reid."
- Father of Shannon Lee
- His father, Lee Hoi Chuen (b. February 1901, died 8 February 1965) was a popular stage actor, and died 8 days after Brandon Lee was born.
