Guest Beat TG Posted January 17, 2007 Share Posted January 17, 2007 -- Donnie Yen's Upcoming Works -- "Donnie Yen's management reveals that there are six potential movie deals being extended to Donnie Yen, namely Legend of Bruce Lee, Gordon Chan's New Fist of Fury, Tsui Hark's adaptation of The Legendary Ranger, Genghis Khan, an untitled period martial arts movie by Wilson Yip, and an unnamed project. Given their fruitful and happy collaboration, Wilson Yip has expressed his interest in casting Donnie Yen as the lead again in his next project upon completion of A City With No Mercy. The Legendary Ranger, which will be shot in Japan, and New Fist of Fury are bent on getting Donnie Yen aboard. The producer of Legend of Bruce Lee has been in touch with Donnie Yen since last year, and had, on various occasion, declared that Donnie Yen is the most ideal choice to play Bruce Lee, given their similar backgrounds: both emigrated to USA and were trained in martial arts since young, and grew up in Chinatown. Donnie Yen, who regards Bruce Lee as his idol, says that Bruce Lee is the idol of millions of people, so, he has to give serious consideration over it."
