Will Yun Lee Movies
Korean-American actor
Will Yun Lee began training for a career in action movies almost from birth. His father is a Taekwondo grandmaster, and
Lee attended UCLA on an athletic scholarship for the school's Taekwondo team. He began his acting career with projects like the family comedy
What's Cooking?, the Asian-American drama
Face, and the TNT fantasy-action series
Witchblade. Then in 2002, he was named as one of People magazine's 50 Most Beautiful People, making him a more familiar face and landing him more high-profile jobs, like
Die Another Day,
Torque, and
Elektra. In 2006, he appeared in the documentary
The Slanted Screen, discussing the history of how Asians and Asian Americans have been portrayed in film. That same year, he signed on to the cast of the show
Thief, followed by a remake of
The Bionic Woman in 2007. Also that year,
Lee was named by People as one of the "Sexiest Men Alive." In the years to come, Lee would appear in several films, like the Total Recall and Red Dawn remakes, as well as on the remake of Hawaii Five-0. ~ Cammila Collar, Rovi
