Hong Kong martial arts legend Sammo Hung, prolific Japanese martial arts actor Yasuaki Kurata and action director Kenji Tanigaki discussed martial arts cinema and shared behind-the-scenes anecdotes together in Tokyo.

They appeared as part of a panel titled “Martial Arts on the Silver Screen: Past, Present, and Future” during TIFFCOM, the market held alongside the Tokyo International Film Festival. “I’ve done martial arts since I was young, learned from different masters and then worked very hard to return this blessing,” said Hung. “The essence of martial arts in Hong Kong is its spirit and our work ethic.

We really invested ourselves fully in our film work and we want to convey this spirit to the next generation.” Hung is a pivotal figure in Hong Kong cinema, appearing in more than 200 films and elevating the territory’s martial arts genre.

He recently starred in Soi Cheang’s Twilight of the Warriors: Walled In, which became the highest-grossing domestic film of all time in Hong Kong this year.
