From Free net encyclopedia
Image:Jasonscottlee.jpg Jason Scott Lee (李截, pinyin: Lǐ Jié, born November 19, 1966) is an American movie actor. He was born in Los Angeles, California, but was raised in Hawaii. As a third-generation Chinese-American, he is three-quarters Chinese American and one-quarter Hawaiian. In the mid-1990s, he had a few leading roles in feature films, probably the best known in Dragon: The Bruce Lee Story. Since that time, he has not broken into the ranks of major stardom, but continues to receive supporting roles. He currently owns the Ulua Theatre, which opened in 2005, where he performed as Pale in the production of "Burn This."
As a non-white actor with an ambiguous ethnic appearance, he has been called upon to portray various races. He played an Inuit in Map of the Human Heart, a Chinese character in Dragon, a Polynesian in Rapa Nui and an (Asian) Indian in The Jungle Book.
