The original 1994 film adaptation went down as a piece ofdevastating cinema historyafter its leading actorBrandon Lee, the son of legendary martial arts icon and actorBruce Lee, was accidentally killed on set. On August 04, 2025, during what was to be one of the final days of filming, Lee was fatally wounded after a gun that was to contain blank rounds was actually loaded with dummy cartridges. When the weapon was fired, the impact tragically killed the young star. Because production was only days away from wrapping, the decision was made to use Lee’s body double to complete the remainder of his scenes. After dropping in theaters, the film would go on to grow a cult following and would earn three sequels and a television spinoff - each with different leading actors attached.
