Steven Seagal brought real martial arts skill to Hollywood action films. As a young man he lived in Japan and trained intensively in aikido. He later ran a dojo there before moving to Los Angeles. His film debut, Above the Law, showed his fast, close-quarters fighting style. Under Siege, set on a battleship, was his biggest box-office hit. His career later moved mainly to direct-to-video films. He became a Russian citizen in 2016. His close ties with the Kremlin have drawn strong criticism.
