What do Bruce Lee and Nelson Mandela have in common? Besides them both being internationally recognized figures, they'll be subjects of Broadway musicals planned for 2010, and/or 2011 in Lee's case, according to the BBC.

The one for Lee will tell of his rise to fame, while the one based on Mandela will be based on his daughter's memoir about his struggle to end apartheid.

From the article,

"The Bruce Lee musical will include martial arts, Chinese opera, modern dance and pop music as his character struggles to master his skills and forge a link to unite East and West."
