  • I did a little research on you, and I've learned that you're incredibly famous in Asia.

  • Pardon me for not knowing everything.

  • What's it like for you, though, being almost anonymous in Los Angeles?

  • I would imagine you have a lot more freedom to be able to walk around and be yourself.

  • Yeah, I feel comfortable.

  • I feel comfortable.

  • Because nobody knows me, you know?

  • Was there any hesitation for you taking this role?

  • Were you a little nervous, or were you more excited?

  • Yeah, no matter who plays New Cadillac, he would be nervous.

  • Because Bruce Lee is a legend.

  • So I don't want people to compare.

  • Because God and normal person can't compare.

  • So I want to do a new style, like more real in my life.

  • No, totally.

  • Yeah, more real in my life.

  • So I play piano.

  • So Michael plays piano.

  • I know that you're a director.

  • What did he say?

  • He said...

  • So they rehearse before the shoot.

  • Do you rehearse before the shoot?

  • Oh, yeah.

  • Rehearsal, you mean?

  • Yes.

  • If we're shooting the scene, we rehearse three times.

  • Then go and do it.

  • But I like no rehearsal.

  • Just doing.

  • It's more my nature. Do you find that you enjoy...

  • Like if you do five takes of something, is that too much for you?

  • Or are you sort of like one or two takes, we got it?

  • Okay.

  • I'm sorry.

  • If I'm a director, because I directed my movie, I like 20 takes.

  • And I choose the best.

  • But in a Hollywood movie, I don't want to miss...

  • I don't want to...

  • I don't want to make a mistake.

  • You don't make a mistake.

  • I don't want to make a mistake.

  • I just want to perfect every time.

  • I understand.

  • I'm being given the signal to wrap up with you, so I say thank you so much and congratulations on the movie.

  • Thank you.

  • Okay.

Nice to meet you.
