Chun Tien

James Tien

  • Name: James Tien
  • Native name: 田春
  • Also Known as: James Tien Chun, Paul Tien, James Tin Jun, Tin Jun, Wen Chen, Wen Lo
  • Nationality: Taiwanese
  • Gender: Male
  • Born: May 28, 1942
  • Age: 82
James Tien's credentials go back to his youth when he was at the same Peking Opera School in Taiwan with Angela Mao.
Some actors get to play the heroes, others are typecast as the villain, and generally, this was his fate. But every film that has a hero has to have a villain, and so Tien had a good career over a number of years from the 1970s to the '90s and is considered one of the better bad guy martial artists. He retired from the Hong Kong film industry in 1996.
