Happy Birthday Donnie Yen!

Happy Birthday Donnie Yen who hits an impressive 51 today! He’s a Hong Kong actor, martial artist, film director, producer, action choreographer, and world wushu tournament medalist too! Donnie’s best known so far for his role as Ip Man in two hugely successful Ip Man movies with a third on the way.

Donnie displays skills in a variety of martial arts, showing off his talent for boxing, kickboxing, Jeet Kune Do, taekwondo, Muay Thai, wrestling, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, Judo, Wing Chun, and Wushu. He’s also seen as one of the most popular and highest paid film stars in Asia of recent years.

For one of the busiest men in action movies today we hope he has time to celebrate!
