Now, however, that is still up in the air as well as Chow tells The Associated Press that he may not have time to star as Kato, the character made famous by Bruce Lee.
Chow, whose credits include Shaolin Soccer and Kung Fu Hustle, said over the weekend that he wants to free up time to work with Jack Black on a comedy about a superhero.
“If I direct ‘The Green Hornet,’ the superhero comedy will have to be delayed for two years,” Chow said. “The timing might not be right for a superhero comedy in two years. And I want to make a movie based on an original idea.”
Chow said whether he stays on to play Kato in The Green Hornet depends on his schedule.
What do you guys think about this? Chow has played and loved Bruce Lee in many of his good movies, but is the goal for this flick to be a comedy or an intense/darker action/drama?
