The Al Leong Appreciation Thread

Al Leong... one of the most recognisable faces in the supporting/extras/stunts credits.

Here's a quick rundown of his most famous.

Big Trouble In Little China
Lethal Weapon and Lethal Weapon 4
Die Hard
Action Jackson
Bill And Ted's Excellent Adventure
Black Rain
Joshua Tree
Last Action Hero
Hot Shots Part Deux
Beverly Hills Cop 3
Godzilla
The Scorpion King


What's your favourite Leong appearance?

Mine has to be Lethal Weapon and Big Trouble In Little China. At least he had more than just a basic background character to play in those two.

I honestly thought he was Under Siege... but I was wrong. Must have been because he was in pretty much every classic action movie between 87-92.

Lol! Yeah Die Hard, when he gets distracted by candy bars.

He hasn't been in anything for years... shame really. It's always cool to see him in a film.

I can only remember him in Big Trouble in Little China and I've seen eight of those films in your list. Must not be too memorable for me.

Dude's gotten old
Stallone seriously needs to recruit him for the next Expendables.
He'd look awesome sitting cross-legged, in a white robe, spouting words of wisdom to the main characters.
Then kicking some ass, namely Stallone's Barney Ross, to prove he's the real deal.

I love the idea that you retire to The Expendables. Like it's a lifetime achievement award.

Classic henchman character. Loved seeing this guy in the background.

As for favourite role? If people don't say Genghis Khan from Bill & Ted, they're watching the wrong movies.

Isn't he the guy that originated the line "Me love you Leong time"?
