Chen Kun-starring "Legend of Bruce Lee"

A new TV biopic on the life of Hong Kong's Bruce Lee started shooting in the kung fu superstar's home town, Shunde city in south China's Guangdong Province.

The local Foshan Daily newspaper, reports "The Legend of Bruce Lee" is being shot in the ancestral home of a local family. Hong Kong actor Danny Chan is playing the martial arts legend.

"I'm a little bit nervous and very excited. But I will try my best to portray this role," said Danny Chan.

Danny Chan says he's been a big Bruce Lee fan since he was a child. He learned Jeet Kune Do, the branch of kung fu Lee established, and often imitated the star.

When he grew up, lots of people started to say he looks exactly like Bruce Lee did when he was young.

In 2000, Danny Chan's likeness to Bruce Lee landed him the chance to play the part of a goalkeeper in "Shaolin Soccer". The film was directed and led by Hong Kong comedian Stephen Chow, who is also a fan of Bruce Lee.

"I hope the drama will spread Bruce Lee's 'never give up' spirit during the Olympic 2008," Danny Chan said.

actualy bruce lee complete. What he do in long beach karate tournament is demontrating his chinese kungfu. Why those karate man listen yet no one challenge him. Because they know this little man is 3 time faster and perhaps stronger then them. What make bruce a godlike is he got a god like speed. YOu can parry a punch then you cant see.Bruce is not a racist. He just wan to prove we all the same, in term of clever and strength. The jpn use to think they'remuch superior then chinese.

uncanny resemblance especially when he is just calm and/or wearing shades... he also nailed bruce lee's fighting style pretty well.

How ironic when I saw Him in Kung Fu Hustle, I kept saying to myself, "This guy looks a lot like Bruce Lee"! And just a few years later, they cast Him in a starring role as Bruce Lee!

eee this trailer suckss. If you watched the whole episodes of this show, you'll surely like it. I have already watched finished and I think this is the best show that shows Bruce's life.

HE IS ON TOP OF MY LIST OF BEST BRUCE LEE LOOK A LIKE. MOVIE STORY NOT ACCURATE TO REAL BRUCE LEE LIFE STORY. I COULD USE HIM AND MAKE A BETTER AND MORE ACCURATE DOCUMENTARY ABOUT HIS LIFE.
