Jackson in Last Dragon Remake
On October 30th, 2008
Samuel L. Jackson, the eternal ass-kicker, is set to portray the villain in Sony’s remake of the 1985 cult classic The Last Dragon.
The ‘80s original told the story of a young martial arts student as he fights on the streets of New York to achieve the highest level of martial arts accomplishment – the Last Dragon.
Jackson will play Sho’nuff, the Shogun of Harlem, a role played by the late Julius Carry in the original.
The screenplay is being penned by Dallas Jackson. Producers include the writer himself, as well as John Davis, Kerry Gordy and RZA.
I love this movie. They should cast Glenn Bradley as Bruce Leroy. He has the Martial Arts skills and he is sooo fine. We need a fresh face in Hollywood. You should check out his trailer at

I did see Glenn Bradley’s movie trailer that LK posted and he is good. Dang that boy can jump high. He would make a good Bruce Leroy Green. He fine too. Busta Rhymes would be better as Sho’nuff because of those lips.
Tony Valente aka black lee is bruce lee roy! hands down.
so excited that they are making this!!! have they found a Leroy!?!?! They should use someone that really knows martial arts! Taimak was the real s@$t and this new guy should be too!!! Just saw someone on Spike TV that totally reminded me of BRUCE LEROY! Check out the light skinned brother!

tony valente is the REAL BRUCE LEE ROY!
tony valente is the shit. wack job dude fought k-1 with zero experience, coming off the street.
tony in the yellow suit has a thick nunchaku in his pants. looks yummy.
Valente is a bad azz. watching him in person is incredible. that shit from k-1 was 7 years ago. people need to see him now. he does bruce lee 2 finger push ups.
I in the top 5 in the world in thai boxing, and sparring Valente is a nightmare. Its like fighting lighting.
He's my favorite blacky.
I seen Tony on a pro tips site sparring a thai fighter. He was so fast, it didnt look real. amazing footage. he buys his bruce lee clothes from me.
I thought tony was acting . but after knowing him 10years, he really is bruce jim kelly . what a cool guy to hang with.
tony is the real deal . that k-1 shit was 7 years ago. ive trained with him and its amazing. Its the closest thing to sparring BRUCE. I beat gene lebell and have won judo and sumo tournaments for the past 40 years.
