<a href="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm2153088/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Director Gareth Evans </a>and his team have already by been feted at numerous international film festivals. But he wasn&#8217;t always a director.
&#8220;Actually, I wanted to be an actor, but then I realized I couldn’t act for s*!t &#8230; In time, all this evolved into directing,&#8221; he tells DA MAN.
Now based in Indonesia (with a previous stint in Japan), he tells us that his love of Asian films began at a very early age. &#8220;Throughout my childhood I was always interested in Hong Kong cinema, mostly action cinema. I watched Bruce Lee, Jackie Chan and Jet Li, and then John Woo movies.&#8221;
As a director, he explains, it&#8217;s all about the wild ride. &#8220;When you are in the hands of a director, who can take you along for a ride that you’re not expecting, that is a really exciting thing to experience. That excites me and that’s what I hope we&#8217;ve done with <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uWlmhMSnVdM" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Raid</a>. We push certain limits in some points and we make you afraid of what’s going to happen next.&#8221;

And if you&#8217;re wondering if he&#8217;s in Indonesia for the long haul, he says he sure hopes so and is planning to be.
