Hollywood is a very fascinating place. Not only do numerous studios release an incredible number of films and other content each year, but Hollywood is also known for being home to some of the most remarkable individuals, whose life stories never cease to amaze audiences and, of course, their fans.
Chuck Norris was one of those people. He began his career as a martial arts instructor and, in the 1968 film The Wrecking Crew, worked alongside Bruce Lee, who later helped him land a role in The Way of the Dragon. There, Norris played one of the characters and also served as a trainer to Steve McQueen.
McQueen encouraged Norris to seriously consider acting as a profession, after which he appeared in Good Guys Wear Black — and just like that, Chuck Norris became a Hollywood action star.
Over the course of his long career, Norris starred in numerous action films and TV shows, and even wrote several bestselling books on martial arts. Younger audiences may also recognize him from The Expendables 2.
At the age of 86, the actor passed away in March this year. However, we believe that his passion for life never left him until the very end, and now his legacy will live on for all of us — fans of cinema, incredible on-screen adventures, and, of course, real life.
