Superstars – Gordon Liu

Gordon Liu was born November 30, 1955 Guangdong Province, China and is the adopted brother of famed Shaw Brothers director and actor Lau Kar-leung.

Gordon learnt the Hung Gar style of kung fu at the Liu family school. The Liu clan traces its pedigree in Hong Gar style Kung Fu all the way back to turn-of-century master Wong Fei-hong. Liu was educated at English schools in Hong Kong and worked as a file clerk before Gordon worked his way into Chang Cheh’s Shaolin Martial Arts (1974) and appeared in several more with the classic kung fu director. It was this film that saw him adapt his now-famous shaven head.

He is best known by recent Western moviegoers for his role as Pai Mei in ‘Kill Bill: Volume 2′ (2004), and as Johnny Mo in ‘Kill Bill: Volume 1′, the head general of the Crazy 88, O-Ren Ishii’s (Lucy Liu) personal army.

Some fans call him the Master Killer after the alternate title to The 36th Chamber of Shaolin.
