That would be my first choice too.

Maybe Jason Scott Lee and Mark Dacascos have a shot at it.

I still need to watch this show.I did see the first episode not bad really. I wonder of there going to mondernize(spelling?) it.

They shouldn't.

 

[deathshead2]

They shouldn't.

Yeah they shouldn't but they more than likly will.

 

[Ronny Shade]

I bet 1 million dollars that David Carradine will be in this.

He better be.

I wouldn't be surprised if he plays Master Kan (blind monk).

 

[Ronny Shade]

I wouldn't be surprised if he's Master Kan (blind monk).

That's likely.

This is hella wicked cool news for me. It has me pumped! I grew up watching the TV show when I was a kid.

I can see Keanu Reeves doing Caine, and definitely see Carradine doing Master Po (Blind guy), or Master Kahn (headmaster of the Northern Shaolin school).

I mixed up both masters .

WOAH!! I never saw this coming.

As long as the script is good, and the movie looks good, I'm game for KUNG FU: The Movie.

 

[NOFX]

Keanu Reeves is a horrible choice???!!! There has to be some other white actor out there that looks sort of asian!

 

[Ronny Shade]

Does Caine need to be half-white?

I don't think so. Bruce Lee was originally going to play Caine, no?

Yes but Bruce Lee looks half white too

 

[terry78]

There's quite a few half white/half asian actors out there, you just have to look. This may also be a good oppurtunity for Erzengel to stretch his acting chops.

If Erzengel gets the role ill boycott this movie, as well as the rest of the true azn's in this world!

Of course it's headed for the big screen. It was a 70's TV show.

my sister loved this show
i'm sure it'll go over big

Keanu would do the role justice, and bring in a very good revenue for the studio. I know a lot of people wouldn't mind seeing him in the role, and I wouldn't mind either.

The story is what is important. Would it follow the same format as the television show? That's the real question. Don't worry. Keanu is a proven box office draw and would do a fine job.

Yes if you want this movie to be a huge box office hit, than yes sign Keanu. But dont sign him because he is a great actor or you think he's a good kung fu fighter because he is both not! I cringe at Keanu Reeves when he was doing his lame ass stance with Lawernace Fishbourne in the first matrix. You know which scene im talking about, with Keanu in those Karate uniform *shudders* If Keanu Reeves is the best actor to play this role then it is truly a sad day in the Kung Fu genre, hell in all movies in general. I could go on but you get my point!

Keanu aint white--he's European, Chinese, and Hawiian---the perfect choice to play the character.
