Hello, friends! Today we'll continue talking about the actors from the Expendables film series, or more precisely, we'll figure out which of them are proficient in martial arts in real life, and which simply honed certain moves for the camera. Although, in today's episode, we'll only feature real fighters! Let's start, perhaps, with the iconic action star of the 80s and 90s, Jean-Claude Van Damme. He began training in martial arts, particularly karate, at the age of ten. Then, at 16, he joined the Belgian national team, with which he won the European Championship and earned a black belt. In addition to karate, the actor was also a keen kickboxer. Van Damme's personal best in kickboxing is 20 wins out of 22 fights. During his film career, Van Damme has appeared in more than 50 films. His most famous films include Bloodsport, Cyborg, Kickboxer, AWOL, Double Impact, Universal Soldier, and many others. In The Expendables 2, he played the antagonist Jean Vilain. At 61, the actor remains in excellent physical shape. The role of Vilain's right-hand man, Hector, was played by English actor and martial artist Scott Adkins, known for his roles in Undisputed 2, Undisputed 3, and Undisputed IV, where he played Yuri Boyka. Speaking of martial arts, Scott Adkins has been obsessed with them since childhood. Films starring Van Damme and Bruce Lee greatly influenced him. At the age of 10, he began training in judo, then taekwondo and kickboxing. Incidentally, he now holds black belts in these disciplines. Scott began demonstrating his fighting skills in Hong Kong films for nominal fees, and then the actor was noticed and began to attract Hollywood attention. His latest film is "John Wick: Chapter 4," which is currently in production and is scheduled for release in 2023. Dolph Lundgren is an American actor of Swedish descent, famous for his roles in action films. He is a true martial artist. At the age of 16, he began training in Kyokushin karate and excelled in it. He participated in various tournaments and competitions. He began showcasing his skills in action films in the 1990s. For example, his most popular films include "Rocky IV," in which he played Ivan Drago, "The Punisher," "Showdown in Little Tokyo," "Universal Soldier," "Joshua Tree," and many others. He played Gunnar in "The Expendables" film series. Dolph Lundgren continues to actively act in films and, despite his age, remains in excellent physical condition, achieved through intensive training and a healthy lifestyle. Jet Li played Yin Yang in The Expendables. Martial arts, as Li Liangjie was called, were a part of his life from childhood. At the age of 8, he was enrolled in martial arts classes, where he subsequently achieved considerable success. After retiring from his athletic career, Jet Li began acting in films. His most famous films include "Legend" and "Legend 2," the "Once Upon a Time in China" series, "Romeo Must Die," "Kiss of the Dragon," "Danny the Dog," and many others.
