Hello;
I'm Ok.....
Oh to correct things...it was Toshirô Mifune (not the director as I posted earliar) who had a problem with Seagal on the set...saying 'who's this white guy'.....just looked it up in the Matrials Arts Legends Seagal issue#2...I've seen the story in other mags as well tho'.

I was just reading the post that had the film credits listed......I see Haruo Matsuoka was in it as well as a stuntman....this was news to me....cool......
reason I was looking at the credits is that I recall Seagakl being listed as "Steve Seagal"..not "Steven"...I think his named got changed just prior to making Above The Law a few years later.....
the person that has the film should be able to verify this as I thought it was and oddity seeing him listed as Steve and not Steven...

J. Lucas,

I don't have the film, but you are right. He was credited as Steve Seagal.

Above The Law
I miss Seagal coreographing the fights. Exit Wounds was great but the action scenes were nothing new. I could tell Seagal didnt coreograph them...

I can't knock Exit Wounds though...
Loved it...
I think I recall that about the Steve thing too...
Does that mean his birth name isn't Steven?
Or maybe his friends just like call him Steve...

Well, could be, or not...
A lot of people named Steven prefer to be called Steve...
Or he could have changed it later on to Steven...
But his father was named Stephen, so maybe they got confused to have two?
Never know...
I personally don't like the common nicknames for my birth name...
But hey, then I can always call him big Steve, sometimes I do....:D
I like Steve and Steven toooooooooo! :)
Thank-you very much for this picture again, suzi! :)
