It's always up to you to decide who you want to be, and set out with determinations and plans to achieve your goals. Silvio doesn't just know how to build the strength, the intelligence, and the important connections with those in the business, he also knows how to use those abilities to help others. He understands well that when those around him are strong, he can also be inspired by them to be stronger. You can see Silvio Simac in action in Transporter 3, Unleashed, Dead Or Alive, and many many more!!!
the interview:
AMM - Being a Taekwondo World Gold Medallist, 14 times British Champion and 4 times European Champion, and someone still comes up to you on the street and picks a fight with you, what would you do?
Silvio - I would first and foremost attempt to defuse the situation, release the tension, resolve the conflict. There are NO winners in any fight. Both sides lose. I don't fancy police station nor hospital. Men fight for survival, dominance, personal gain and most often to massage their little egos. I am happy to walk away from the fight UNLESS, I am accompanied by a friend or family member whose safety is jeopardised. Then, and only then I will resort to doing anything I have to do to protect them and their wellbeing. For me personally, it is not fighting other men and defeating them that makes me tough. It has been defeating my own personal demons and fears that has yielded my grandest victories and made me tougher altogether.
AMM - What was the most memorable thing you've learned from Jet Li while working with him?
Silvio - I had been a big fan of Jet Li prior to being cast in Unleashed. The Action Director, Yuen Wo Ping, had just returned from Australia shooting Matrix 2 and Matrix 3 back to back to join the cast of Unleashed. The Hong Kong style action choreography is pretty intense and fast paced. Luckily I had much prior experience of working on Hong Kong Production... |
