On November 26th, 2023, Shout! Factory is releasing the 4K Ultra HD for Dragon: The Bruce Lee Story, a 1993 Bruce Lee biopic directed by Rob Cohen (The Fast and the Furious), which is loosely based on Linda Lee’s 1975 book, Bruce Lee The Man Only I Knew.

The film stars Jason Scott Lee (Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon 2), Lauren Holly (Dumb and Dumber), Robert Wagner (Heart to Heart), Michael Learned (The Waltons), Nancy wan (The Wrecking Crew), Ric Young (The Corruptor) and Ong Soo Han (The King of the Kickboxers).

Based on true events, Dragon: The Bruce Lee Story is the incredible journey of the life, love and unconquerable spirit of the martial arts legend. From a childhood of rigorous martial arts training, Bruce Lee (Jason Scott Lee, Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon 2) realizes his dream of opening his own kung-fu school in America. Before long, he is discovered by a Hollywood producer (Robert Wagner) and begins a meteoric rise to fame and an all too short reign as one of the most charismatic action heroes in motion picture history.

    Sadly, that comes at a cost. According to Amazon.com, directly converted, the 4K is about £30. Once you add tax and shipping fees, it rises to £45! That’s a bit steep.
