A bronze statue of Bruce Lee is being set up in Hong Kong's famous Avenue of Stars, one of the region's most famous tourist attractions.

Cao Chong'en, a sculptor from the Chinese mainland whose works include a statue of the Chinese leader Deng Xiaoping, will try his hands at the legendary Kung Fu master, and replicate one of Lee's classic poses from his films.

The Bruce Lee Association in Hong Kong says further details about the statue are yet to be announced by HK Film Awards Association, which has named Lee as ¡®Century Star' for the forthcoming HK Film Awards Ceremony.

Closely following the Hollywood pattern, the Avenue of Stars near Victoria Harbor features hand prints of film stars and directors.
