The stars from the cult classic Berry Gordy’s The Last Dragon reunited for the first time in nearly 30 years at the D-Lux Entertainment Expo March 28-30, 2014. Taimak Guarriello (Bruce Leroy), Glen Eaton (Johnny Yu) & Ernie Reyes Jr (Johnny’s little brother Tai) hadn’t seen each other since the movie was released in 1985. Their love for the film and for each other is evident during this discussion panel hosted by Craig Sutton from TheLastDragonTribute.com.
Watch below as they share their favorite songs, quotes, memories of Sho’nuff, Leo O’Brien, the making of the movie and answer fans questions that range from what’s happening with the remake to who had the biggest crush on Denise “Vanity” Matthews.
The Last Dragon Panel Introduction
The Last Dragon Panel Discussion
**March 2015 Update**
The Next Reunion happened at The Last Dragon 3oth Anniversary Celebration during the 2014 Urban Action Showcase & Expo November 8, 2014 in New York City. It was the largest screening of The Last Dragon and gathering of Last Dragon fans and cast ever!
Highlights from The 2014 Urban Action Showcase Last Dragon 30th Anniversary Screening & Cast Reunion
The event was a huge success but because seating was limited to only 400 lucky fans at the screening it left many fans wanting more! That’s where the The Last Dragon 30th Anniversary Team stepped in. The Team lead by Demetrius Angelo (founder of the Urban Action Showcase & Expo) , Craig Sutton (creator of The Last Dragon fan site) and Taimak (Bruce Leroy himself) reached out to fans for the opportunity to bring the celebration to their city. They tapped into the power of crowdfunding to let fans decide which city should host the next party and The Last Dragon 30th Celebration Tour was launched.

Tremendous support came from fans from all over the country but thanks to several key ambassadors and sponsors the following cities were chosen to host the first of events the tour: Newark, Austin, Houston, San Antonio, and Rhode Island.
