It can’t rain all the time, Slackers.
It's hard to believe that it has been 30 years since we lost Brandon Lee at the ridiculously young age of 28 - while filming the movie that would ultimately cement his legacy.
As a third generation performer, Lee had the looks, charisma, and the acting chops (he was a Strasberg alum), to become a massive superstar.
After a number of Hong Kong produced films, and TV movies, Lee started to make a name for himself in Hollywood with a role opposite action icon Dolph Lundgren - Showdown in Little Tokyo.
Looking to avoid being typecast, Lee went all in for his big starring role as Eric Draven, a dead rockstar looking for vengeance - The Crow.
After a tragic accident on set took his life, Lee's legend was solidified - and much like his father Bruce, his star only burned brighter after death.
Here's to the life and legacy of Gen X's own - Brandon Lee.
