He is Stallone’s old partner, the original Marvel Punisher, and entered the DC movie universe at the age of 60.

He is one of the earliest action superstars in Europe to make a name for himself. He was a former Swedish karate national champion and has collaborated with Stallone in several classic movies. Fans who are keen on action movies must know him. He is - Dolph· Lundgren.

Before the 1990s, European countries were not actually rich in action stars. At that time, apart from the famous Jean-Claude Van Damme, the more well-known European stars were Dolph Longuet, the protagonist of this issue. Alright.

Dolph Lundgren was born in Sweden on November 3, 1957. He was not an actor at first, but a professional karate athlete. He started practicing martial arts at the age of 14. He has a third-degree black belt qualification in Kyokushin karate. He was the captain of the Swedish senior karate national team and won two European heavyweight karate championships.

This kind of experience makes him obviously different from many martial arts stars who are "only showy", and he is not only "good at martial arts", but also "good at literature". During his studies, Dolph Lundgren received three scholarships from the University of Washington and other schools, and also obtained a master's degree in Australia.

Lundgren's acting career began in 1985, when he played a Soviet boxer in "Rocky 4". His tall and muscular figure made him an instant star, and he became a hot star. Martial arts star.

There were rumors at the time that when he was playing opposite Stallone, the latter asked him to hit him as hard as possible without mercy. As a result, Stallone was directly admitted to the hospital and stayed in the hospital for four days. Although I don’t know how true this rumor is, it also shows that fans recognized his hard power at the time.

Success in the film and television field gave him a taste of the sweetness, so he officially dropped out of school and joined the entertainment industry. In the following years, he continued to have film appointments and starred in many action movies that were very popular. His many collaborations with Stallone made the two of them become "old partners" in action movies.

In the next twenty years, Dolph Lundgren’s name was mentioned more and more in the film and television circles, and he also became a star with Stallone, Schwarzenegger, and Jean-Paul Shang-Geun. The equally famous European and American action superstars.

In the "Suicide Squad" series launched in 2010, he teamed up with Jet Li, Stallone, Jason Statham, Schwarzenegger and other stars to bring fans a long-lost "hardcore action movie" ".

Among the action movies that Lundgren has appeared in during his career, there are also "superhero movies" that are very popular nowadays. In 1989, he starred in "The Punisher", making him the "first-generation Punisher" in Marvel movies. His image of a ruthless man with few words is very vivid.

In 2016, the 59-year-old Lundgren "jumped" from Marvel and joined the DC TV series "Arrow Season 5", where he played the Russian villain Kova, who is also a ruthless character. .

Now in his sixties, Dolph Lundgren is still active in the film and television industry. In 2018, he appeared in a DC movie again. This time he played the role of Nereus, the sea god in "Aquaman" king.

Lundgren's role in "Aquaman" is not many, and it does not involve the fighting scenes that he is good at. Many viewers may not even recognize that he plays the Poseidon who has always advocated "conquest by force" of.

Looking back at the movies that Lundgren has appeared in in recent years, the proportion of literary dramas has greatly exceeded that of martial arts. Similar to all other veteran martial arts stars, Lundgren must have also begun to enter his later years. your own journey of transformation.

In recent years, Lundgren has also made attempts to transform into a director. Several films directed by him are included in his future plans. I hope that Lundgren, who "abandoned martial arts and turned to literature", can also succeed. .
