Biography for Sammo Hung Kam-Bo

Born in Hong Kong, Sammo Hung's acting career began while he was training in acrobatics, martial arts and dance as a child at the China Drama Academy, and he received acclaim for his performance with a troupe called "The Seven Little Fortunes." He made his feature film debut as an actor at the age of 12, and has worked in numerous martial arts films as an actor, director, producer and/or choreographer, collaborating with Bruce Lee and Jackie Chan, two superstars of the genre.

He is now internationally renowned as a pioneer and trend-setter in Hong Kong action films. Hung's big break as a film actor came with a role as a villain in the Bruce Lee film Enter the Dragon (1973). He established his reputation as a skilled physical comedian in several kung-fu comedies, beginning with "Enter the Fat Dragon" (Fei Lung gwoh gong (1978)). He also produced and starred in numerous successful films throughout the 1970s and 1980s for Hong Kong's leading film studio, Golden Harvest.

Hung collaborated in the 1980s with long-time friend Jackie Chan in a highly successful series of action comedies that cemented Hung's reputation as a consummate actor/director and launched Chan's career as an international star. For a while, Hung also starred in an American TV series, "Martial Law" (1998).

He directed "Once Upon a Time in China and America" (Wong Fei Hung: Chi sai wik hung see (1997)), his first film shot in the US. He and his wife, Mina, now divide their time between homes in Hong Kong and Los Angeles.

Sammo Hung grew up the Academy of Study of the Chinese theater of Hong Kong where he had as classmates Jackie Chan, Yuen Biao, Corey Yuen and other stars of martial arts cinema.

An accident forced him to immobilize for a long time and it was there that he would have taken his few extra pounds that have become his distinctive sign over the years.

He played in thirst for justice, Owl vs Bumbo, Island on Fire or Mister Cool. He even had his own TV series The Shanghai cop, which never prevented him from reconciling roles in front of and behind the Camera as director or choreographer.

Sammo Hung Kam-Bo is a Chinese actor, director and producer of cinema. He is also known for his skills in martial arts, in particular in Kung-Fu, which earned him the nickname "L'Homme-Montagne". Hung was born in 1952 in Hong Kong and began his career in cinema from the age of 10 by playing in Kung-Fu children's films. He then started working for the Shaw Brothers studios, where he played in many popular martial arts films in the 1970s and 1980s.

In addition to his acting work, Hung has also produced and produced many films, including the series of films "Le cop de Hong Kong" and "The adventures of Jackie Chan". He also worked as a combat choreographer for many action films, notably for the famous director John Woo.

Hung is considered one of the pioneers of modern martial arts cinema and is recognized for its unique style and its ability to combine comedy and action spectacularly. He has won numerous prizes for his performances during his career, notably the prestigious prize for the best achievement at Hong Kong Film Awards in 1995 for his film "The Hong Kong 3" cop.

Hung continues to work in cinema at present and is considered one of the most popular and respected actors in the Chinese cinema industry. He is also one of the few actors of martial arts to have managed to break through beyond the action cinema industry to become a real international star.
