Brian Tee

I watched all these movies like 'King Kong' and 'Godzilla' when I was growing up, and the fact that dinosaurs actually lived on this earth, the fact that they are not fake, made them very fascinating.

My martial arts came a lot from my uncle, who actually taught martial arts through the military. He was a black belt in tae kwon do, but also, he used a lot of military-style fighting where it's not the high kicks or anything like that. It's basically defeat your opponent as fast as possible.

When Marvel got the rights to Namor, I thought I'd be the perfect fit.

I think, as kids, everyone is fascinated with dinosaurs. I definitely was. It is the ultimate big, huge, monster.

I love being part of these giant, epic movies. I take great pride in being part of them.

I'm a fanboy and a geek.

I loved these turtles that were somehow mutants and teenagers, and they were ninjas. How cool is that?

Fast and Furious' continues to be alive, which means 'Tokyo Drift' is still alive, which means DK is very much alive.

Working in Korea with the talent and staff there was very eye-opening. I was in awe of everyone's talent, passion, and love for the process.

I come from a huge theater background. The whole action and stunt world just came as the roles were available.

Parts for Asians are hard enough to get, and if Tee, which sounds kind of generically Asian, helps me get roles, so be it.

I grew up playing 'Mortal Kombat' as a kid. I was always a fan of the video game. Saw the movies as a kid as well.
