Cedric Sundström


I had this fast/telegraphic but enlightening chat with Cedric Sundström, director of American Ninja 3: Blood Hunt and American Ninja 4: The Annihilation. I'm publishing it in order to legitimate some points of my timeline which I developed far before I would chat with Mr. Sundström.


Here we go...
 
1- How old is Sean Davidson in 1979/80? I cannot find the age of the actor (who played Sean as child) anywhere... my guess: 10 years?
 
C.S: +_- 10
 
2- Is Joe Armstrong supposed to have been a CIA agent or a Delta Force Operator before he would join the Peace Corps? My guess: Delta Force.
 
C.S: Delta Force
 
3- Why don't you used the red belt for Joe's American Ninja costume in the second half of AN4? Is that "image" owned by Sam Firstenberg?
 
C.S: Sam Firstenberg
 
4- I've heard that AN3 wasn't much successful like the first 2 ANs. Did it make a decent gross worldwide anyway? Was AN4 a "hit" by Cannon's parameters? Which movie was more successful... AN3 or AN4?
 
C.S: N3 made more than N4. N4 was successful, but a bit dark for some


This is it! Thank you, Mr. Sundström.
