The Medallion, 2003
The Medallion is a movie with Jackie Chan in the lead.
Scott Adkins has some very short fight scenes in this movie, against Jackie Chan.
In an interview with Hong Kong Cinemagic Scott told: "We actually shot it in China but it
was a Hong Kong production. It was my first opportunity in a martial arts movie so I was
very willing to learn as much as I could and work as hard as I could. It’s different out
there, there seems to be no separation between stunt men, actors and set dressers,
everyone gets stuck in together. I have been very lucky to get to learn from some of the
best Hong Kong choreographers. If you’re going to be doing martial arts films then what
better place to learn than in Hong Kong.
I was aware that they wanted to give me the end fight with Jackie Chan but first they
wanted to test me out in a smaller scene fighting Jackie Chan, I knew if I blew it I
wouldn’t get the end fight. Luckily for me I didn’t blow it but unluckily they cut the fight
from the movie.
I tore my hamstring fighting Jackie on The Medallion, which was nice. You pick up some
sort of injury on any action movie you do, it’s just part of the deal, it’s unavoidable."
Black Mask 2: City of Masks, 2002
Kan Fung had escaped from the clutches of the organization responsible for his
superhuman abilities. He plans to find any geneticist who will be able to cure him.
Meanwhile, he has decided to use his powers for the greater of good, calling himself
Black Mask. Lang, another high ranking member of the organization, has been hired to
find Black Mask and kill him.
Wrestling promoter King is gearing up for a major event and has his top wrestlers Claw,
Iguana, Chameleon, Snake, and Wolf ready for battle. However, when the wrestler
Hellraiser (real name Ross) is attacked by Iguana, who undergoes a radical
transformation to look like a iguana-human hybrid, Black Mask comes to the rescue.
Ross is seriously injured and Black Mask chases Iguana to a nearby Tower. When
Iguana falls off, Black Mask catches his hand in hopes that he can help him. Iguana
lets himself free of Black Mask's grip and falls to his death, angering Chameleon, who
was Iguana's girlfriend. It is soon revealed that the wrestlers had been experimented
under Dr. Moloch, who gave the wrestlers animal DNA to enhance their skills. However,
they soon discover the animal DNA have given them the ability to undergo
transformations as animal-hybrids. They now intend to use their newfound abilities to
track down Black Mask and kill him to avenge Iguana.
Meanwhile, Black Mask has found the geneticist who may be able to cure him, Dr.
Marco Leung. He would give her anonymous phone calls. In the meantime, Black Mask
befriends Raymond, Ross's young son who idolizes both his father as well as Black
Mask. When Black Mask scuffles with some of the wrestlers, he is given a dose of
animal DNA, which turns him into a tiger-hybrid. Locating Dr. Leung, Black Mask warns
her of the DNA and asks for her help. She learns of a chemical component that could
be the key to cure the animal DNA for Black Mask. Sneaking out, Black Mask has
another scuffle with the wrestlers but successfully finds the chemical needed for the
animal cure. Fully cured of at least his animal DNA, Black Mask learns that his old
nemesis Lang has killed Moloch and has planted a bomb that has the capability of
changing DNA throughout the city. Black Mask takes on all of the wrestlers as well as
Lang's top man, General Troy. While taking on Chameleon, he finally reveals how
Iguana actually killed himself and that he had intended to help him. Feeling remorse,
Chameleon sacrifices herself to help Black Mask. Finally, Lang takes on Black Mask. At
first Lang has the upper hand, but Black Mask successfully defeats Lang and stops the
bomb from explosing.
The next day, Dr. Leung receives a call from Kan Fung. She leaves the lab and gets on
the back of Kan's motorcycle, which implies she has finally cured him of his original
superhuman abilities.
Scott Adkins has a small but important role in this movie as Dr. Lang. He does a final
fight at the end of the movie with lots of special effects.
Special Forces is an
important movie for Scott
Adkins career, because
this was Scott's first
collaboration with director
Isaac Florentine.
