Bruce Lee's Comeback

[Bad Ace]

n e 1 heard about this?!well to fill u in........................

More than 28 years after his death, the king of martial arts is reported to be making a comeback film.
Bruce Lee is to be "resurrected" by computer technology to star in Dragon Warrior, the first time a dead actor will be re-created in a major movie role, according to US trade magazine Variety.

The $50m (£35m) film is being financed by South Korean film company ShinCine Communications, which acquired the rights to Lee's likeness from his estate.

The film company, headed by Chul Shin, is said to have been working on the project for the past four years.

And apparently Lee's widow, Linda Lee Caldwell, and his daughter, Shannon Lee, have agreed to the move.

Shannon Lee told Variety: "We believe in ShinCine's and Mr Shin's enthusiasm and commitment to making a first-rate film.''

Now in its third draft by Korean and Japanese writers, Dragon Warrior will be translated and further refined for an English-language production.

Bruce Lee was a veteran of Hong Kong cinema when he first reached mainstream American audiences in 1966 as Kato in the television series The Green Hornet

Utter shite. Why can't people just let sleeping dogs lie?
No computer trickery will ever be able to recreate a fraction of that man's genius.

Thats just not possible when there is money to be made! Fingers crossed this movie will do him some justice.

The man is a true legend & gave faith to people because of what he belived in!! He's alos got his own theme park opening in China which I think is not needed

The irony here is that his son was the first actor to be digitally put into a film after his death.

true, but he was half way through filming The Crow when he was killed which kinda makes it ok. i don't agree with using bruce lee's likeness in a film just to cash in on his status as a legend. Besides, there are plenty of martial artists that are pretty damn good as it is, and the film producers are going to have to use a live model for the purposes of the other actors having a real model to bounce off.

yeah thats what i thought too flattmatt.
