Sammo Hung

Sammo Hung 洪金宝 (Hong Kong Cantonese: Hung Kam Bo, Mainland Cantonese: Ho Gam Bo, Mandarin: Hong Jin Bao) is a Chinese actor, producer and director born in Hong Kong, with an ancestral home in Ningbo, Zhejiang Province, China. He is known for his work in many kung fu films and Hong Kong action cinema. He has been a fight choreographer for, amongst others, Bruce Lee, Jackie Chan, King Hu, and John Woo.

Hung is one of the pivotal figures who spearheaded the Hong Kong New Wave movement of the 1980s, helped reinvent the martial arts genre and started the vampire-like Jiang Shi genre. He is widely credited with assisting many of his compatriots, giving them their starts in the Hong Kong film industry, by casting them in the films he produced, or giving them roles in the production crew.

In East Asia, it is common for people to address their elders or influential people with familial nouns as a sign of familiarity and respect. Jackie Chan, for example, is often addressed as "Dai Goh" (traditional Chinese: 大哥; pinyin: dà gē; jyutping: daai6 go1), meaning Big Brother. Hung was also known as "Dai Goh", until the filming of Project A, which featured both actors. As Hung was the eldest of the kung fu "brothers", and the first to make a mark on the industry, he was given the nickname "Dai Goh Dai" (traditional Chinese: 大哥大; pinyin: dà gē dà; jyutping: daai6 go1 daai6), meaning, Big, Big Brother or Biggest Big Brother.

It can be quite easy for Westerners to become confused with the variety of names and pronunciations so we will simply refer to him as Sammo Hung or Yuan Long (Money Dragon)

As an influential pioneer in modern Hong Kong cinema with over 140 films to his credit as either an actor, director or action director, Sammo Hung has earned the respect and the nickname "Big Brother" from most of the Hong Kong film industry where he has launched the careers of international stars Yuen Biao, Michelle Yeoh, Andy Lau and Cynthia Rothrock.

Upon leaving the Peking Opera School, Sammo entered the film industry as a stunt man and quickly worked his way up the ranks to the role of stunt coordinator and action director. During this time, Sammo became the action director of choice for international female action star Angela Mao. Sammo made a more visible splash in front of the cameras in 1973 when he agreed to fight his friend Bruce Lee to spice up the opening of Lee's film "Enter The Dragon".

Several years later, Golden Harvest would ask Sammo to step in as the fight choreographer for the unfinished Bruce Lee movie "Game Of Death", which coupled pre-existing sequences already shot by Lee with sequences using a double thus making the completion of Bruce Lee's film possible following his untimely death.

Sammo made his feature film directorial debut with the film "The Iron Fisted Monk" in 1977. The following year Sammo paid tribute to his friend and Hong Kong's biggest star Bruce Lee by with the comedy "Enter The Fat Dragon" which saw Sammo both starring and directing. These two movies, along with Jackie Chan's "Snake In Eagle's Shadow" and "Drunken Master", started the whole kung fu comedy genre, which quickly became a mainstay of Hong Kong cinema. Sammo also created and popularised the comedy kung fu horror genre with "Encounters Of The Spooky Kind", in which he starred and directed, and "Mr. Vampire" which he produced.

Not only did this movie mark the first collaboration of Sammo with both of his Peking Opera classmates Jackie Chan and Yuen Biao, but it also smashed all Hong Kong box office records at that time. Sammo, Jackie and Biao would collaborate together several more times in 1980's becoming known as the "Golden Trio". One of these movies directed by Sammo "Wheels On Meals" would match up Jackie Chan against undefeated kickboxing sensation Benny "The Jet" Urquidez for what "Inside Kung-Fu" magazine would call the best fight ever put on film.

After watching the Sammo directed film "Eastern Condors", Oliver Stone proclaimed the beginning of a new wave of Hong Kong cinema. Sammo once again caught the attention of the cinematic world working as the action director on Wong Kar Wai's art-house martial arts film "Ashes Of Time". Then Sammo directed a pair of movies that both topped the Hong Kong box office first with the Jet Li film "Once Upon A Time In China And America" and then with Jackie Chan's "Mr. Nice Guy". The latter film was the highest budgeted Hong Kong film at the time and was a co-production with New Line Cinema.

After this, Sammo worked as the special action director and 2nd unit director for Tsui Hark on the 2 American big budgeted Jean-Claude Van Damme movies "Double Team" and "Knock Off". Sammo would continue to venture into Hollywood by starring in the hit CBS show "Martial Law" which garnered Sammo a TV guide nomination for favourite star of a new series.

     
After working as the fight choreographer for the Gwenyth Paltrow/Mike Myers's movie "A View From The Top", Sammo reunited with his old friend Jackie Chan as the action director of the supernatural action-comedy "The Medallion", also starring Claire Forlani. Distributed by Colombia Pictures, at $35 million "The Medallion" is the most expensive movie ever produced by Hong Kong.
