Donnie Yen

In Hollywood, I'm lucky, I only do big movies like 'Blade.' It's much more comfortable: you have a trailer.

I've always been in a rebel.

I act according to the requirements of the character, and if I try to play the role, then I play it truthfully. In my daily life, I'm a laid-back, peaceful guy. I'm just doing my job to act.

The blessing that this film business has given me is that when I walk into a school I automatically have everyone's attention. They want to hear what the guy from 'Con Air' and 'Desperado' has to say.

I'm a big action junkie. I grew up on the '80s action movies - the bad ones and the good ones.

I think for any actor, for the roles they deeply, truly want? They always have to audition for them.
