Yuen Woo-ping may be the best person to comment on today's top kungfu actors, because most of them rose to fame in films he choreographed.
Jackie Chan, for example, became a star after appearing in two of Yuen's works, Drunken Master and Eagles Shadow in 1978, when the kungfu comedy genre was new.
Jet Li cooperated with Yuen in the Huang Feihong series. The biopics of the martial artist are still the favorite Li films for many of his fans.
