Biographie
Scott Adkins is a very well respected English actor who also happens to possess amazing skills as a martial artist. Scott began his acting training in his home town attending the local youth theatre from the age of 10.
At the age of 14, Scott also began to train in Tae Kwon Do under the instruction of Ron Sergiew with the T.A.G.B. After a few years he moved on to kickboxing under Anthony Jones. He is now a fully trained kickboxing Instructor for the P.K.A. Scott also holds a red belt in Tae Kwon Do and a black belt in kickboxing. He is also skilled in Wushu and Judo.
He went on to study drama at college. Whilst at college he played ‘Laertes’ in “Hamlet” for director Michael Bodenstein and the dual roles of ‘Ken’ and ‘Tony Sutton’ in “Striker” for director Damian Brant.
His first professional break came when he was offered a role in a Hong Kong martial arts film called “Extreme Challenge” and found himself in the East for the first time. Scott got the chance to work with some of Hong Kong cinema’s leading action directors including Yeun Wo Ping, Cory Yeun, Sammo Hung and Jackie Chan.
Scott also landed the regular role of Bradley Hume in award winning British TV drama “Holby City” from which he began to be noted as an actor to watch. Scott then appeared as a regular in the popular British comedy drama “Mile High” showing that not only was he adapt as an actor in drama but also had a talent for comedy. He then moved on TV series such as: “Dangerfield,” “Hollyoaks” and the hard hitting award-winning police drama “City Central” directed by BAFTA award winner Kenny Glenaan.
Starring roles in feature films soon followed with his portrayal of ‘Talbot’ in “Special Forces” and ‘Boyka’ in “Undisputed II: Last Man Standing.” It was this film that broke him into the mainstream with his villainous portrayal of a Russian MMA underground fighter ‘Boyka’ in what has been hailed as one of the best American made martial arts films of recent times.
Along with lead actor Michael Jai White, fight coordinator JJ Perry and the slick direction of Isaac Florentine this movie has some unbelievably heart stopping fight scenes. After this Scott had guest starring roles in bigger budget films like “The Bourne Ultimatum,” “The Tournament,” “Weapon XI” and X-Men Origins: Wolverine.” His first lead role came with “Ninja” and was soon followed with “Undisputed III – Redemption” where he reprised his role as Russian MMA fighter Uri Boyka. He has filmed the co-lead role of ‘Flint’ in “Assassin Games” opposite Jean-Claude Van Damme and the leading role of ‘John’ in “Universal Soldier – A New Dimension.”
