I remember hearing that rumor, not sure if it was true haha.Triad? Not that I know of
He still directs movies but hes mainly based out of China now.
sad but he’s basically on bad terms with all of his 90s costars and production people. Combo of being money hungry and fiery temper =\
Brother B from goo wak jai is for sure a triad
It was a little white washed to me. I guess that’s what they were going for, trying to get the American viewers.
Brother B for sure haha. I wonder how he is in person. He seemed like a cool guy in the movie.Brother B from goo wak jai is for sure a triad
since you mentioned God of Gamblers
He’s the bodyguard/best friend in the series
He’s a real life Dai Lo and ran his own production company
Yeah I remember disliking it when it first came out because the comedy was definitely more geared towards western audiences. It works though, Can’t argue with its success.
It would be hard to translate some Chinese humor/jokes too. Different meanings that the Westerners couldn’t relate.
If I remember correctly, he fled to Canada after everything went down and was out of the business for 3/4 years before coming back
I had the biggest crush on Athena Chu back in the day
Funny you say this
After watching Train to Busan, my sister was ready to have this man's babies
No lie, he was by far my favorite character in Train to Busan
I think HK Cinema really messed me up when I was a kid. I remember the opening scene of God of Gamblers Return where they killed Chow Yun Fat's preganant wife and put their fetus in a jarAnother must watch classic series.
Think of all the stars that were in originals, sequels and spin offs.

You know your stuff.That guys name is Charles Heung. His family's triad background is well known to the public. His dad founded the Sun Yee On, which is one of the biggest triads in the world.
In regards to Twins, I think they're managed by Emperor group. I don't specifically know if they're run by triads, but yeah there are definitely connections. I remember reading about there being a contract out for Edison Chen's arm when his whole scandal went down and messed up one of the Twins' image
Can’t keep up but I know you could fill me in on all the details.
What happened? He seems to have a lot of respect in HK.Damn, just found out this dude is a sexual predator
I remember my parents watching some Hk movie where the bad guy had dudes hanging alive with hooks in they backs and he was like tugging on their legs so it digged in deeper. Freaked me out back thenI think HK Cinema really messed me up when I was a kid. I remember the opening scene of God of Gamblers Return where they killed Chow Yun Fat's preganant wife and put their fetus in a jar
