Throughout the 1970s, Bruce Lee had a significant impact on Hollywood, becoming a leader in martial arts films, but his illustrious career probably wouldn’t work today. Due to changes in action films, fight scenes and technology, a career like Bruce Lee’s would definitely face challenges today or even not happen at all.
Although Bruce Lee had a variety of minor roles in the US, including The Green Hornet, the martial artist really made a name for himself by starring in five feature-length Hong Kong martial arts films. In order, he appeared in The Big Boss, Fist of Fury, Way of the Dragon, Enter the Dragon and Game of Death. Unfortunately, while Bruce Lee inspired other martial artists, what he achieved would almost certainly not happen today.
