He did follow Bruce Lee and failed miserably in the 80s. Remember The Big Brawl? What a disaster. Now he's gotten a 2nd chance to play goofy sidekicks behind Chris Tucker and Owen Wilson, blah.
Bruce Lee was a leading man, top billing actor. Does anyone even know anyone else in a Bruce Lee movie. And his movie were popular worldwide, everyone knew him from Asia, to Europe, to America. A true international star in the 70s.
