A bit of the Taiji form was in Remember the Titans.
Also in one of the Star Trek series, the one with the bald guy as captain – the Klingon security officer, Dork, or whatever his name was, was on a planet that had been settled by a mixed community of neutered Klingons and Romulans. He did a bit of the Yang style form as part of his daily exercise in the episode.

Swayze totally looks like he’s doing the 24 yang form.

When Angel, the vampire with a soul, came back from being tortured in hell in the greatest tv series ever–Buffy the Vampire Slayer–he practiced some really crappy Tai Chi he learned during the Boxer Rebellion in China 100 years earlier. When he first came back from hell he was like a scared animal and couldn’t talk. After a few weeks of Tai Chi he was all mellow again and ready to fight evil!

It’s amazing how stiff all the stars are.
How about Martin Sheen doing some Drunken Commando Tai Chi and punching the mirror in “Apocalypse Now”
