Bruce Lee famously played Kato on The Green Hornet, and this adds one interesting element to his legacy that has not received much attention.
The legacy of Bruce Lee has one curiously overlooked footnote. Long after his unexpected passing in 1973, Bruce Lee stands as one of the biggest martial arts icons of all time. Lee was a martial arts innovator in real life thanks to his eclectic fighting philosophy known as Jeet Kune Do, and he also starred in such acclaimed martial arts classics as Enter the Dragon, The Way of the Dragon, and Fist of Fury.
SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY RELATED: Bruce Lee Was So Fast That It Became A Problem For The Green Hornet The Green Hornet and Kato's appearances on Batman arose as an opportunity to bring the two shows' audiences together, rather than because the Green Hornet and Kato had any prior history in DC lore. While this makes the Green Hornet-Batman crossovers somewhat odd compared to the kinds of team-ups seen in modern superhero movies and TV shows, it did have the effect of tying Bruce Lee's onscreen legacy into that of Batman and Robin.
