Member Yihetuan Posted February 14, 2020 Member Share Posted February 14, 2020 Does anyone know why he abruptly stopped making films & what he's up to these days? Seems his career stalled out in the mid-90s. He certainly had the leading man looks and one of the more impressive all around physiques in HK cinema. Not sure if he had a body building background but it sure appeared that way from his films like Sea Wolves and Tiger Cage II. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member AlbertV Posted February 18, 2020 Member Share Posted February 18, 2020 I don't know but he has a bit of a resemblance to Louis Fan 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Yihetuan Posted February 18, 2020 Author Member Share Posted February 18, 2020 They had eerily similar physiques as well. Maybe Gary is Fan mei sheng's illegitimate son. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Mike Leeder Posted February 19, 2020 Member Share Posted February 19, 2020 Sadly Gary didn't really gel with HK audiences, Tiger Cage 2, Middle Man didn't really give him that much to do and Sea Wolves wasn't a success at box office, i know he popped up in the Young Wisely TV movies shot around same time but with the closing of D&B he went back to Toronto as far as i know.... i know he popped up in one of Jalal Merhi's movies, i think it was Virtual Combat or something as a character in a video game world but think that was about it 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He played Gridman / Khan / Fango in that film :) 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kikicardin Posted April 20, 2023 Share Posted April 20, 2023 Back then, I remember Gary Chow had a japanese wife and led a kung fu school named "Impact Martial Arts" in Toronto. He participated in martial arts festivals. He teached and prep the lion dance too. I don't know if he stopped doing movies because of his personnal life or because his movies didn't made well in HK. He's not found no where on google, neither social media, almost like erased from the map. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
