New Book on Sammo Hung to be Released

Screen Power Publishing, the British-based company behind SCREEN POWER: THE OFFICIAL JACKIE CHAN MAGAZINE and JADE SCREEN: THE ULTIMATE ASIAN FILM MAGAZINE, have recently worked on a new book commemorating the career of a Hong Kong legend.

ENTER THE FAT DRAGON: THE LIFE AND FILMS OF SAMMO HUNG is a commemorative look at his career, from his humble beginnings as a member of the Seven Little Fortunes to his work as a one-man Hong Kong film industry. Hung, who recently was awarded the Best Action Choreography award at the 28th Annual Hong Kong Film Awards for his work on IP MAN, is a reknowned actor, director, producer, and action choreographer whose career spans over four decades.

Screen Power U.S. Correspondent and KungFuCinema.com’s own Albert Valentin has contributed to the book, writing a biography on Hung as well as an essay on Hung’s skills as a martial artist and his career as an action choreographer.
