I was about 10 years old. I just remember the film Enter the Dragon with Bruce Lee blowing my mind on the screen and I thought to myself, "That's what I want to do for a living when I'm older." Bruce Lee was so magnetic and charismatic and held the screen so well. It's just a very powerful performance in that film. That's the first memory I have - him in that movie.
Bruce Lee was my inspiration when I was growing up and I used to watch 'Enter The Dragon.' No one could sit me still and I was non-stop hyperactive doing karate moves in the house.
The anime that inspired me the most and one that I probably have influence from is the very first series of 'Lupin the 3rd.' I'm very drawn to 'Enter the Dragon' and 'Dirty Harry,' too. They definitely inspire me.
I don't think 'Enter The Dragon' should ever be remade.
Bruce Lee has always been a hero of mine, and the choreography in 'Enter The Dragon' is amazing.
If we want to talk about the movies that have made an impact in what I do in the action realm - Bruce Lee in 'Enter the Dragon.' I've watched that countless times.
I did a movie where my character was obsessed with Bruce Lee, so I learned everything about Bruce Lee, read everything, watched his movies.
I love 'Enter the Dragon,' and I love Japanese movies. I love Jackie Chan movies; they are my heroes.
