Double Dragon is a 1994 live-action film adaptation of the video game franchise of the same name. This film was produced starring Mark Dacascos as Jimmy Lee and Scott Wolf as Billy Lee, along with Alyssa Milano as Marian Delario. [1] In the movie, the twins are only described as brothers, presumably to explain the differences in ethnicity. It was directed by James Yukich and written by the team of Paul Dini (of Batman: The Animated Series and others) and Neal Shusterman. Reviews by critics, such as the review of the movie by the Washington Post were not favorable. The movie was also shunned by fans and public opinion alike.

When the brothers are fighting and Jimmy is possessed by Shuko, the villain, there is a close-up of Billy, and behind him you can clearly see the Double Dragon arcade game.

The Jackie Chan movie The Twin Dragons (1992) includes "Double Dragon" as an alternate title, according to the IMDB, although it is completely unrelated to the video game series.
