Nice find Matt. This is really good news for Wing Chun.
I was wondering recently how the film makers would handle Yip Man’s time with Bruce Lee. Bruce is legendary, yet Donnie Yen has the starring role as Yip Man, so I’m interested to see how they strike a balance. I’m guessing that will be in Ip Man 3.
I think so, Ip man 2 i think is focusing more on the period where Yip Man moved to Hong Kong. Bruce lee would have come later at about the same time as his eldest son Ip Chung (who was only young in the first film) and William Cheung were learning under Yip Man.
