Sho Kosugi, who starred in a series of ninja films beginning with "Enter the Ninja", will reprise his role in "The Return of the Ninja," a film being scripted by Steven de Souza ("Die Hard," "Lara Croft Tomb Raider: The Cradle of Life"). Kosugi, who divides his time between Tokyo and Hollywood, where he runs several martial arts studios, will play the last ninja master, who travels to the U.S. to find the American heir to the stealth martial arts legacy.

Producer Kevin Foster of Amazing Grace Films said the ninja pic will correct the Hollywood misperception that the masked men in black pajamas are bad guys, as opposed to Robin Hood types.
