Rapid Fire is a 1992 action film starring the late Brandon Lee. Lee was reportedly in talks with 20th Century Fox about making Rapid Fire 2, prior to his death. School scenes were filmed at Occidental College in Los Angeles. Many of the fight scenes were orchestrated by Lee, which contain elements of his father's, Bruce Lee, Jeet Kune Do fighting style. Brandon Lee originally wanted John Woo to direct the film but the production company wanted a martial arts film so decided against it. Lee accidentally broke his toe while filming a scene where he had to kick an oak door, the scene was never included in the movie.
