Kid Cheung

Lee’s family moved back to Hong Kong a few months after his birth. His father was an opera singer and a part-time actor, and from a young age, Bruce found himself tagging along with him to different sets. He quickly felt at home in front of the cameras, and at nine years old, landed a role in a 1950 Hong Kong film called “Kid Cheung.”

He played the lead role of an orphan boy who sells comics at a little stall, and in order to survive, he needs to constantly fight off gangs and thieves. He devoted himself fully to the character and his natural charisma was hard to miss.
