He doesn’t quite have the movie history of a Mako, Victor Wong, or a James Hong but George Cheung has hung around and had plenty of roles in Hollywood. I remember first seeing him in Rambo: First Blood Part II as some soldier who Rambo disposes of with an exploding arrow.
But all in all Cheung is kind of “that Asian guy” who you’ll recognize in plenty of films. He rarely gets speaking lines so you kind of just forget about him. He did however speak in Starsky and Hutch. Amazingly he’s got 174 titles to his name so he’s no slouch.
And at 63, the guy is still going strong. A clip of Cheung after the jump….
Remember this scene?
I wonder how proud he is of being 174 different Asian stereotypes.
