Overview[]
When his beloved teacher is treacherously killed by the cowardly nephew of the Chinese Emperor, Shaolin Monk Kwai Chang Caine instinctively reacts out of sheer rage and kills him. Now condemned with a price of his head, he is forced to flee his homeland and seek refuge in the land of opportunity: America.
In the Old West, Caine embarks on a quest to find his half-brother, relying on his extraordinary martial arts skills and Shaolin training to resolve conflicts wherever he finds them.
Kung Fu was an American produced western-adventure martial arts TV series starring the late David Carradine. It was a hugely popular and highly acclaimed series in the 1970s thanks to its unique amalgamation of western period drama, action adventure, and martial arts and helped popularize Eastern Martial Arts to the West.
It further inspired a full length movie Kung Fu: The Movie in 1986 as well as several TV series most of which have starred David Carradine; the most recent one is a reimagination/reboot series featuring a female protagonist.
It is widely acknowledged that the concept and idea of the series was created by noted martial artist and actor Bruce Lee who tried to pitch it to several studios and failed only for the studios to steal the idea as their own.
