UPDATE: The contest has expired as of 12:00pm, EST on 5/7

Three years in the making with a mild and growing career in filmwork under his belt, U.K. choreographer/actor Mike Fury is ready to add “author” to his list of accomplishment with an insightful new book dedicated to the film industry’s leading action and stunt community. Life Of Action is the name of this, Fury‘s debut literary contribution for all who love action on film and want to learn more about their favorite stars and men behind the action on screen, and while all meant to help grant validity to such a dynamic profession and its cohorts, it has also lended our dear author a good serving of fulfillment and gratitude to boot.

“When you spend any long period of time on a passion project, it definitely becomes personal. I just hope that action fans enjoy the results!”, Fury said in our recent inteview during the week of the cover unveiling. “As for my own film work, I can’t put myself anywhere on the same level as the guys in the book but I’ve had the chance to work on a few films and I’m very grateful for that. It’s definitely confirmed to me that their knowledge, experience and stories are very valid, not just for curious fans, but also those hoping to follow a career in this field.”

DESCRIPTION:

Martial Arts and Action cinema fans can now get the inside track on their favourite stars and movies through this fascinating selection of candid interviews with top talent such as Scott Adkins (Undisputed II & III, The Expendables 2), Donnie Yen (Ip Man, Special ID), Dolph Lundgren (Rocky IV, The Expendables), Tsui Hark (Once Upon a Time in China, Detective Dee) and Andy Lau (Infernal Affairs, House of Flying Daggers). There are also unique insights from the creators of the hugely popular Street Fighter: Assassin’s Fist series and the action teams behind John Wick, The Expendables, Warrior, Haywire and more.
