Korean superstar Rain might possibly be cast in an upcoming remake of Enter the Dragon. The new film will be titled Awaken the Dragon and it’s being written by “The Shield” executive producer Kurt Sutter. This will also mark Sutter’s debut directorial effort. Warner Bros. studio execs were reportedly very impressed with Rains performance in the upcoming film Ninja Assassin and they want him for the new project.
If he were to get the role he would be playing a “rogue Shaolin monk” that enters “into the bloody world of underground martial arts fight clubs.” Pursuing this rogue monk would be an FBI agent to be cast with an established American actor.
Bruce Lee rose to world super stardom with his role in Enter the Dragon. Rain is already mega popular in Asia and has a growing cult following in the United States. Will starring in Ninja Assassin and this remake shoot him into the stratosphere of world wide popularity and stardom? Is he already being typecast as a martial arts star even though he isn’t even really a martial artist at all? Will mainstream America take notice of Rain? Heck, Megan Fox has reportedly the got the hots for him so he is getting some notice.
It’s going to be interesting to see how his Hollywood career goes.
