Gordon Liu (Lau Kar-fai ); born Sin Kam-hei (, 22 August 1951) is a Chinese actor and martial artist best known for his martial arts films.

Born in Guangdong, Liu studied hung ga kung fu at the school founded by Lau Kar-leung's father, Lau Cham. He entered the Hong Kong film industry as a stuntman. His early acting credits include minor roles in several Hong Kong kung fu films, including the Shaw Brothers-produced ''5 Shaolin Masters'' (1974). He went on to appear in many Shaw Brothers films, such as ''Challenge of the Masters'' (1976), in which he portrayed the folk hero Wong Fei Hung, ''Executioners from Shaolin'' (1977), ''The 36th Chamber of Shaolin'' (1978), in which he played the lead role as Shaolin hero San Te, ''Dirty Ho'' (1979), ''Return to the 36th Chamber'' (1980), ''Martial Club'' (1981), ''The Eight Diagram Pole Fighter'' (1984), and ''Disciples of the 36th Chamber'' (1985). By the late-1980’s, he had begun accepting smaller roles, such as in Lau Kar-leung's ''Tiger on the Beat'' (1988).

Liu made his American film debut in 2003. He played two roles in Quentin Tarantino's ''Kill Bill'' films: Johnny Mo, the leader of the Crazy 88 yakuza gang in ''Volume 1'' (2003), and kung fu master Pai Mei in ''Volume 2'' (2004). Other than being a staple in Hong Kong action movies and his foray into Hollywood, Liu also made his Bollywood debut in 2009's ''Chandni Chowk to China''.

In 2020, Liu was inducted into the Martial Arts History Museum Hall of Fame. Provided by Wikipedia
