Born to a Japanese father and an English father, Andrew Koji grew up in Epsom near London. As a teenager, he appeared in short films and wanted to become an actor.

Andrew then returned to London to join the Actors Temple Studio and played, with the Royal Shakespeare Company, in several plays such as Star Wars Stage Show , Richard II , A Streetcar Named Desire , The Fu Manchu Complete and Hidden . With his physical abilities, Andrew Koji was hired to be Sung Kang

Among them: The Wrong Mans , Acquitted , Call the Midwife: Les heroines de l’ombre , Peaky Blinders , American Gods and especially Warrior , which launched his career since he played the hero. In this series based on an idea by Bruce Lee mixing Kung Fu, corruption and machination against a backdrop of clan war, Andrew Koji plays Ah Sahm, a Chinese martial arts prodigy who goes to San Francisco to find his sister. From then on, the actor was sought after in the cinema for major roles in blockbusters. He plays Storm Shadow in Snake Eyes , the spin-off of GI Joe – The Rise of the Cobra and Conspiracy .
