Based in Hong Kong since the mid 1980s, King made a name for himself in the world of Hong Kong action cinema, with supporting roles in innumerable Hong Kong movies including several of the biggest hits in Asian cinema history, such as Jackie Chan's "Armour of God 2: Operation Condor" and "Legend of Drunken Master", Jet Li's "Once Upon A Time In China", and Stephen Chow's "Fight Back To School".A non martial artist, King proved he was more than willing to take a hit and perform a stunt during his varied HK film career, eventually serving as stunt coordinator and performing stunts in both the Hong Kong lensed "Cracker", and "Night Watch" where he also doubled Pierce Brosnan.
