Iko Uwais first shot to prominence as the star of The Raid, Gareth Evans’ instant classic that blew action fans away with a phenomenal mix of lightning-fast action and impeccable choreography. However, it wouldn’t be a stretch to say that Hollywood hasn’t figured out the best way to utilize the star’s undeniable talents in the decade since.
The 39 year-old has shown up in Star Wars: The Force Awakens, Beyond Skyline, Mile 22, Stuber, Snake Eyes, and the upcoming Expendables 4, but he hasn’t really been given a chance to shine. It’s not a coincidence that he kicked all sorts of ass in The Raid 2, Headshot, The Night Comes For Us, and Triple Threat, which were all independent films.
