The news was initially not publicised as his family wanted to keep his death private.
The prolific Hong Kong martial arts film star and director Corey Yuen died in 2022, the Federation of Hong Kong Filmmakers confirmed on Aug 12.
The troupe’s members included Chan, Hong Kong actor-director Sammo Hung and Yuen. Near the end of his post, Chan named Yuen in a list of Yu’s late disciples. “Decades passed just like that, and all of us have wrinkles on our faces and white hair now. There are many moves we can no longer pull off, but, as Sammo says, after a lifetime of fighting and stunts, the fact that we are healthy and can even get together is a miracle.”
