How jasonscottlee became Mulan villain despite a terrible Skype audition

is such a far cry from Bori Khan, and Bori Khan is such a far cry from David Kawena in. So I think there were big questions as to whether I could play the baddie, but I think there were also people in my favor who felt like I had shown that depth as an actor over the course of my career with other projects. So I feel very lucky to be thought of in that vein, and that they trust that I can pull it out of the hat, even though I’m very affable.

There’s a cliche that’s often thrown around regarding great villains and how many of them think they’re the hero of their own story. Do you think it applies to Bori Khan since he genuinely feels that an injustice was done to him via his father’s death at the hands of the Emperor ? When I took on the role for Universal, I was completely ambivalent about it. I wasn’t sure because I had such honor and respect for him. While I was training, I started learning his system of fighting and actually feeling the motions that he taught his students. I realized so much about the precision and the discipline of a person like that, and that’s why it was very hard for me to watch that scene with Mike Moh portraying Bruce.

I always thank my stars for that time. Not only was it a childhood story favorite of mine, but when I asked [director] Stephen Sommers, I said, “You’re going to have real animals?” And he said, “Yeah.” So I said, “I’m in.” People always told me in the acting business, “Never work with children or animals,” but I thought, “Man, this is going to be great because this is probably one of the most challenging things to do.
