by Nicole Oebel
Most people know Byron Mann since he played the part of Detective Matt Sung on "Dark Angel". Now he is back on TV as part of the "Arrow" cast, portraying the character of Yao Fei. He also plays a big part as Silver Lion in the movie "The Man with the Iron Fists". In this interview he talks about shooting this film, his work with Wu-Tang Clan rapper RZA and his role in "Arrow"...
... Q: On "Arrow" your character Yao Fei turns into a sort sensei for Oliver Queen, who triggers his will to survive. Why do you think Yao Fei does that? What does he see in Oliver?
Byron Mann: "I think Yao Fei thinks that Oliver can potentially help him get off the island. He sees him as an extra hand. But there could be other reasons that may come into play as the series progresses."
Q: Do you know how Yao Fei landed on the island and how he got to be as he is now?
Byron Mann: "There have been hints that he was a former Chinese intelligence officer and also that he might have been a criminal that was sent to this island. But nothing is definitive at this point. I'm finding out information as we shoot..."
Arrow airs Wednesday at 8/7C on The CW.
