Carradine was probably best known as Frankenstein in DEATH RACE 2000, Kwai Chang Caine ("Grasshopper") in KUNG FU, and Bill in the KILL BILLs - although his film and television credits are vastly more expansive.

David's cinematic appearances include CRANK: HIGH VOLTAGE, GRAY LADY DOWN, Q: THE WINGED SERPENT, THE LONG RIDERS, LONE WOLF McQUADE, BOUND FOR GLORY, and Scorsese's MEAN STREETS.

Carradine's television work includes J.J. Abrams' ALIAS, SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE, THE VIRGINIAN, WAGON TRAIN, NORTH AND SOUTH Books I & II, "Shane" in the 1966 series of the same name, KING OF THE HILL, TITUS, voice work on numerous cartoons and video games, and much, much, more.
