Biography Filmography Links Contact Galleries
Birthplace: Oakland, California, USA
BORN: 1 February, 1965
DIED: 31 March, 1993
Brandon Lee was the son of martial arts expert
Bruce Lee. He was Asian American, with a Swedish American mother. Lee
began performing in regional theater while still in high school. After
studying theater in college, Lee received his first break when cast in
Kung Fu: The Movie (1986). He portrayed an assassin on the trail of David
Carradine's Caine. (Ironically, the role of Caine was originally conceived
for Bruce Lee). Lee made his feature debut that same year in Legacy Of
Rage (1986), after which he appeared in two more little-seen action films
before breaking into the mainstream with Rapid Fire, a standard genre
entry that signaled Lee's arrival as an action star with considerable
global potential. Tragically, it was to be Lee's last fully completed
film.
Lee was nearing the end of principal photography on his next film, a supernatural
thriller titled The Crow (1994), when he was accidentally shot and killed
by another actor using a prop pistol that had not been properly inspected
prior to filming. He died, sadly, twelve days before his wedding to fiancee
Eliza.
Lee was buried beside his father in Seattle, Washington
