Some Famous People called Bruce Le
Bruce Le
Bruce Le ( born June 5, 1950, Burma), birth name Huang Jianlong, a.k.a. Wong Kin-lung, is a Macao-established Burmese (or Taiwanese; there are conflicting reports) born (and half-Chinese/half-Burmese) martial artist and actor known for his martial arts film of the 1970s and 1980s. Most of these were inexpensively produced and were made to capitalize on the martial arts phenomenon started by Bruce Lee, whose death in 1973 left a large box office void (hence the name change to "Bruce Le").
Bruce Le was a contract player for the Shaw Brothers, where he appeared in the science fiction opus Infra-Man. He is better known, however, for his Bruce Lee–inspired "tribute" films, also known as "Bruceploitation".
