the one - interview with jim wong
Who is Jim Wong? Jim Wong has been working in T.V. and Film for over a decade. His writing credits include 21 Jump Street and Booker, while his combined writing and Producing credits also include The Commish, The X-Files, Space Above and Beyond, Millenium and his big screen directorial debut, Final Destination.
During production on The One we had a chance to ask Jim a couple questions about the utilization of the traditional Chinese martial art, Hsing Yi Quan, in the fight sequences.
Q:Why out of all the style of Chinese martial arts do you think that Hsing Yi fits the character of Yulaw so well?
Jim: "Well, first of all, it's a very aggressive, direct style of attack and his character is like that -- he's only after one thing: to kill all the other Gabriel Yu Laws in the other universes. So there's only one path. A direct, aggressive motion is what he's all about -- so that style of fighting fits him.
"And also from what I understand it was developed by prisoners in China who were tied up by their hands -- they were shackled and manacled and could only move in a direct motion moving in bursts. So thinking about the type of environment it was developed in, it seems to be a style that would fit him as well because of his environment, and you know ... law enforcement or the possibility of imprisonment. "
Q: Were you very familiar with martial arts before this movie?
Jim: "I was familiar only in regard to what I had seen in movies. I have not taken martial arts although when I was a kid I used to read a lot of books about them."
Q: As a director filming action scenes, did you find it a unique challenge to incorporate specific martial arts styles in to this movie?
Jim: "I was fortunate in that I had a lot of help doing this from Corey Yuen and of course from Jet himself. They are experts and brilliant at what they do so I relied on their help a lot. Their fighting styles are an art form, in and of itself, and I tried to interpret their art in a way that hopefully will be unique to this movie."
