The amazing life and legacy of action icon Bruce Lee comes to the small screen in the 50-episode biopic drama The Legend of Bruce Lee. Known for his striking resemblance to Bruce Lee, Hong Kong actor Danny Chan Kwok Kwan from Stephen Chow’s Shaolin Soccer and Kung Fu Hustle steps into Lee’s hallowed shoes for this highly anticipated drama.

The 50 episode series (over a total of 17 DVDs) follows the 32 years of Bruce Lee’s life, from his troublemaking youth as an actor and martial arts upstart in Hong Kong, to his life in the United States and development and mastering of his martial arts and philosophy, to his storybook rise to global fame in both the martial arts and movie-making worlds. The Legend of Bruce Lee also co-stars Wang Luoyong, Mark Dacascos, Gary Daniels and Michelle Lang as Bruce Lee’s wife.

I am watching the Chinese version. However hopefully there will be one with
English subtitle so that many of Lee’s fans in America and Uk can really
enjoy the series.

I am doing its English subtitle. Very difficult and time-consuming task because of their slang that is understood mainly by the Beijing people. So far have finished only the first episode. Need many months to finish the rest. Will announce it then. Interested fans can write to me.

I visited HK 2yrs aga and saw the disk in passing thinking it was an old “fake” Bruce Lee flick from the 70’s, should have taken more notice. Hoping it will become available in english to order online or on my return to HK.

Snookie, any update on the vedy ardous task of subtitles.

Why the official people can’t do it i never know, surely they realise there is a market for Bruce Lee in the West.
