Did You Know?

Personal Quote:

I knew there was something special about the theatre for me. Something beyond the regular reality, something that I could get into and transcend and become something other than myself. See more »

Trivia:

Died while in a coma just days before his last theatrical movie, Street Fighter (1994), was finished. The film is dedicated to his memory. He accepted the role of M. Bison because his children were fans of the video games. See more »
