Bruce Le (Template:Zh; born June 5, 1950) is a martial artist and actor known for his martial arts films of the 1970s and 1980s. Most of these were inexpensively produced and were made to capitalise on the martial arts phenomenon started by Bruce Lee, whose death in 1973 left a large box office void (hence the name change to "Bruce Le").

Early life

Born in 1950 to a Taiwanese father and a Burmese mother, Wong studied gymnastics and martial arts in Burma before being discovered by Shaw Brothers, which hired him for supporting roles.[1]

Career

He was credited as Little Dragon because of his slight resemblance to Bruce Lee. He appeared in "Super Inframan," Hong Kong’s answer to the transforming heroes of Japan's Henshin series.

As Bruce Le, he was a contract player for Shaw Brothers, where he appeared in the science fiction opus Infra-Man. He is better known, however, for his Bruce Lee–inspired "tribute" films, also known as "Bruceploitation".
