Melanie Jean : Eve (Future)


Kerry Wong : Monkeyman

KERRY WONG brings innovation and diversity to ACT through his knowledge of the martial arts. An enthusiastic practitioner of various fighting styles, Kerry Wong began his training at the age of 10. His formal martial arts education consisted of Kyokushin Karate, Shotokan Karate, Taekwando, Wushu, Capoeira, and Chinese Boxing. As his knowledge increased, Kerry decided to take a step towards a career which would best utilize his martial arts expertise.

In 1998, Kerry co-founded ZeroGravity (www.zgstunts.com), with the help of Tony Chu and Greg Wong. ZeroGravity was created to bring the most innovative style of fight choreography together with unique martial arts encounters. After realizing that such a style existed in Hong Kong, ZeroGravity dedicated their efforts into learning, and eventually emulating, the Hong Kong style of action made popular in today's action films. And because of the vast knowledge of various martial arts, the fight choreography offered by ZeroGravity is unique, creating a style they can call their own.

Kerry is currently based in Los Angeles, leading the ZeroGravity South Division (Tony Chu leads the North Division). While learning everything he could about acting, directing, cinematography, and anything else about film, Kerry encountered ACT. ACT acquired Kerry Wong as a student at first. After realizing what he and ZeroGravity had to offer, ACT made Kerry one of their own, and brought in ZeroGravity as a martial arts talent pool.

Stephanie Cheeva : Catman



Stephanie Cheeva came to LA in 1996. Being born and raised in Bulgaria, she had to learn how to speak English, before she could join and graduate the "Joanne Baron & D.W. Brown" school of acting. Since then we've seen her in "The Ultimate Game", "Martial Law", "Nash Bridges", "VIP", "Good Versus Evil", "Longshot", "Last Call", "The Fine Art Of Persuasion", "Tequila Express", etc. She's been in a Pontiac-Sunfire National Commercial and the Freeserve-Internet Commercial.

What's the appeal? The catlike eyes, pouting lips, high cheek bones mixed with a beautiful physique and jumping kicks that will knock most people's heads off? Or is it something else? Strong faith, unbreakable spirit, gentle heart, a true warrior passionately fighting her battle towards excellence with joy and perseverance, that inspires all who know her. "The camera loves Stephanie", says producer Bedo Manukian.
