10. Forest Whitaker – Black Belt – Kenpo Karate
On top of being a phenomenal actor and an all-around nice guy, Forest Whitaker is also a black belt in Kenpo Karate. On top of that, he’s also studied in-depth the art of kali stick fighting.
Though Whitaker isn’t known for his action movies, we have seen him put some of these skills to use throughout the years, like Repo Man for example. For his training in kali stick fighting, Whitaker trains under Dan Inosanto, who was a student of the legendary Bruce Lee, so maybe some of Lee’s moves have rubbed off on Inosanto and then Whitaker.
