JOEY IWANAGA: The Furious

Joey Iwanaga joins Nerdtropolis Mayor Sean Tajipour on Reel Insights to talk about The Furious, the explosive martial arts action. In this conversation, Iwanaga breaks down playing Pak Long, a dangerous and unpredictable villain whose loose screws make him one of the film’s most intense characters.Iwanaga opens up about why Pak Long was such a fun role to play, explaining that the character lives on a thin line between good and evil. While Pak Long may come across as deranged, Iwanaga talks about the emotional idea behind him, including a man who never fully understood unconditional love and spirals when his plans for family, money and control fall apart.The conversation also dives into the brutal fight style of The Furious. Iwanaga explains how director Kenji Tanigaki immediately saw him as a kicker, but he wanted Pak Long’s movement to pull from more than one style. He talks about blending taekwondo, full-contact Kyokushin karate and even dance into the character’s rhythm, making Pak Long’s fighting style feel sharp, unpredictable and physical.Iwanaga also gets real about the pain behind the action, saying the physical impact in The Furious was almost all real. He shares what it was like fighting elite martial artists like Joe Taslim, Xie Miao, Brian Le and Yayan Ruhian, and why you cannot hold back when working with performers of that level.The interview also covers the no-faking spirit of The Furious, the pressure of making action look brutal while keeping everyone safe, the trust between martial artists, and the massive rehearsal process behind the film’s final police station battle. Iwanaga also reflects on how martial arts becomes a universal language, especially when timing, distance and precision matter more than words.
