Unlike the Kwai Chang Caine series in "Kung Fu" that he was bypassed for to David Carradine, Bruce owned "Enter the Dragon", "Return of the Dragon", "Fists of Fury", "Game of Death", and "The Chinese Connection."

Even Chuck agreed to play the villain in one of the movies. Bruce also  made famous figures like Jim Kelly, Bob Wall, Jackie Chan, etc.

Bruce was already big then. He continues to be big. Do we know of any part of the world that does not know who Bruce Lee is? Bruce died before I saw one of his movies:" Return of the Dragon."  But I already heard of him when I was a little boy on the hills of Laos. Didn't know his real name as Bruce Lee but his character as the nanchuck hero. People all over the world today, even in some of the most remote places of Africa, look to him for superiority and excellence in martial arts.

So, who wouldn't play or have played his sidekick?
