You might not know who he is, but his apprentices will sure raise some eyebrows… Jet Li, Donnie Yen and Wu Jing etc. Most people should know about Jet Li; Westerners might not be too familiar with Donnie and Wu Jing, but they are quite famous in Chinese region.

I think the films Westerners may best know Donnie Yen from is Once Upon a Time in China 4 starring as the major antagonist, and Iron Monkey starring as a protagonist.
