Mason Lee will play the late martial arts legend in the highly anticipated biopic, helmed by his father, Ang Lee.
The Big Picture Mason Lee will take on the role of a lifetime in Ang Lee's highly-anticipated Bruce Lee biopic. The son of the acclaimed director is slated to play the legendary martial artist who helped bridge a cultural gap between the East and West and is still widely recognizable in pop culture to this day for his roles in classic films like Fist of Fury and Enter the Dragon.
Mason Lee, for his part, has a solid resume to his name with most U.S. audiences likely knowing him from his role in The Hangover Part II as Teddy. The bulk of his roles, however, came in overseas projects like the Taiwanese film Who Killed Cock Robin?. Although the team wanted to find someone that better fit the assignment, they kept coming back to Lee in the end.
