Actor name challenge.

Jumpy

Hi All,

Another actor name challenge for you.

Its doing my head in.

I cant remember the name of any movies he is in, so imdb is out but I can picture him perfectly.

He always plays a bad asian guy. Usually has long hair and he has incredibly thin evil eyes, almost to the point where you think he cant see.

I have never seen this guy play a nice role.

Its not Chow Yun Fat or Jet Li. He is not that high profile. He would play a great Ghengis Khan (but it wasnt him in Mongol).

Thanks in advance, I know you guys always figure it out.

Can you remember what sort of films i.e - Martial Arts adventure style, Fighting Tournament Style

Ah, is it Al Leong?



He's the kind of actor you'd have seen hundreds of times, in loads of different films, and never know his name. He's been in Die Hard and Lethal Weapon, among other films.

I reckon you might be talking about Cary-Hiroyuki Tagawa, he's been a bad guy in loads of movies and TV shows

That was the 1st person I thought of when I read the OP's description.

Could it be Al Leong?



As seen playing the asian bad guy in Die Hard, Lethal Weapon, Beverley Hills Cop 3. And yes, Gengis Khan in Bill & Ted's Excellent adventure.

EDIT: Ah someone else already wrongley guessed this one.

I'm dissapointed it's not Al Leong now, he doesn't get enough recognition.

Jumpy

I vaguely remember Al but I wouldnt be able to see him mentally without a pic.
Does he have any main parts in any movies?

Not really, more of an extra in a few big movies than anything else.
