April 7, 2003 — MGM's Bulletproof Monk is the next comic book adaptation out of the gate on April 16. Chow Yun-Fat recently spoke about playing the title role and starring opposite Seann William Scott and Jaime King.
Q: Do you enjoy the physical part of this role?
Yun-Fat: Not really, but when you have the wire on and they fly you in the air, it can be a lot of fun. It depends on the difficulty of the wire work. For me, I'm not fascinated about all the wire works or martial art things, I'm more dedicated to the drama and the romance. I'd rather have a girl than a wire or two guns, but I'm glad that we have a lot of young actors in this movie. They give the movie a lot of energy and also a lot of inspiration for the new generation. I am already a veteran in this industry, more than 30 years, so more or less we need some new faces. They taught me a lot about how to be a young actor. I'm still young in Hollywood, you know.
