From Wikipedia
Roy Chiao Hung (Chinese: 喬宏; 16 March 1927 – 15 April 1999) was a Hong Kong-American actor. Nicknamed "the Lion of Cinema" for his athletic physical stature and powerful screen presence, he was a popular leading man throughout the 1950s and '60s, and continued his acting career well into the 1990s. He was an early star of wuxia films associated with the Hong Kong New Wave, thanks to his roles in A Touch of Zen (1971) and The Fate of Lee Khan (1973), both directed by King Hu.
His deep voice and fluency in multiple languages, including English, also made him a popular actor for Western filmmakers working in Hong Kong. He notably played supporting roles in Ferry to Hong Kong (1959), Enter the Dragon (1973), Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom (1984), The Protector (1985) and Bloodsport (1988). He won the Hong Kong Film Award for Best Actor for his performance in the 1996 Ann Hui film Summer Snow.
