Asian male warrior
Asian detective from Saw Asian warrior from a 2006 Bombay Sapphire commercialAsian men have been portrayed as being warriors in many movies. Recently Asian men have been portrayed as warriors in American movies. These warriors are not restricted to earlier depictions of martial artists, but instead encompass the mainstream archetype of the warrior. In the movie Hook, Rufio is portrayed as a great Asian leader and warrior. In the movie Saw, the Asian detective valiantly followed the serial killer with a shotgun. In King Kong, a Chinese shipman fell to his doom while hunting the legendary Kong. In the movie The Shadow, the archvillian was the Asian warlord Genghis Khan reborn.

Asian men have a large portrayal as martial artists in the United States which is part of the broader Asian male warrior archetype. The movie series The Karate Kid features the ongoing journey of the pupils of the Karate master Mr. Miyagi. The many portrayals of Jackie Chan have him star as the lead martial artist in his movies. More recently The Last Samurai had many accurate depictions of Japanese samurai who clashed with katanas.

Asian sorcerers
Asian men have often been portrayed as having great knowledge in the ways of magic and the supernatural. In the movie Gremlins, the old Asian man guards the supernatural mogwai. In the movie Karate Kid, Mr. Miyagi has the supernatural power to heal Danny after he is struck by his opponent. In the movie Darkman, Genghis Khan has a variety of supernatural powers ranging from illusion to blindingly-fast movements. In Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom, the Kali priest had the power to remove peoples' hearts from their bodies and was immune to the effects of fire. In The Matrix films, the Keymaker is an elderly Asian man who crafts all the keys to the programs; his power is in his mystical gatekeeping rather than physical fighting power, and he ends up being killed after fulfilling his mission to Neo.
