South Korean pop singer\/actor Rain<\/strong> was offered the lead role in the Warner Bros. remake of Bruce Lee’s kung fu flick "Enter the Dragon,"<\/strong> J Tune Entertainment, Rain’s agency, confirmed Thursday.<\/p>\n

J Tune<\/strong>, however, added that Rain hasn’t made a decision, and refused to discuss details.<\/p>\n

"Enter the Dragon," <\/strong>which is considered one of Bruce Lee’s most popular films in the West, and the last before his death, delves into a Shaolin monk (Lee) who is assigned to expose illegal activities on an island. For the film’s contemporary take, the company has hired writer Kurk Sutter (also the co-producer for American TV drama "The Shield").
\n
\n
\nJ Tune Entertainment<\/strong> said only that Rain is currently preparing for his next Asian concert tour later this year.<\/p>\n

He really is becoming a global superstar and really starting to make a name for himself in America. Rain seems to be the Asian star breaking into the mainstream…and maybe the Wonder Girls, then Utada? <\/p>\n
