Jackie Chan as Mr Miyagi?

Jackie Chan is very close to teaching Jaden Smith how to wax on wax off in the new Karate Kid movie according to The Hollywood Reporter. While I think his casting is a good move, I stilll think the movie is a bad idea. It doesn't really sound like the original, so I just don't understand why they don't just do it as a karate movie instead of clinging on to the Karate Kid name.

What a blockbuster! Jackie Chan and Jet Li to do a movie together!!!
October 31st, 2006 under Jackie Chan, Movies. [ Comments: none ]

Let the fight begin. Jackie Chan and Jet Li will star together for the first time in a $70 million family pic that Relativity Media will finance and Casey Silver produces. Robert Minkoff will direct, while martial arts expert Yuen Woo-Ping ("The Master") will create the action sequences. Shooting is set for April. Film is one of two new big-budget projects that Relativity — backed by hedge fund money — will be offering to buyers at the American Film Market, which unspools Wednesday in Santa Monica. The second is Brian De Palma’s $70 million prequel "The Untouchables: Capone Rising," which Paramount will distribute domestically. Both films will be repped at AFM by Mario Kassar’s Magnetik Media, which also will be selling Relativity’s previously announced Russell Crowe-Christian Bale starrer "3:10 to Yuma," which James Mangold is shooting. Chan-Li starrer, known as the untitled J&J project, has been rumored for some time, but Relativity, headed by Ryan Kavanaugh, boarded only recently. John Fusco script is based on the legend of the monkey king and his quest to achieve immortality. Li is set to play two roles, that of the monkey king and the silent monk. Chan will play the monk T’sa-Ho. The two martial-arts masters have long said they would like to appear together in a film and fight each other.

Jackie Chan did a porn film
September 25th, 2006 under Jackie Chan, Movie Star Gossip. [ Comments: none ]

MARTIAL arts star Jackie Chan has confessed he appeared in a porn film three decades ago. Jackie, now 52, says he couldn’t turn down the role in dirty movie, All In The Family, because he was penniless. “I had to do anything I could to make a living 31 years ago, but I don’t think it’s a big deal, even Marlon Brando used to be exposed in his movies,” he said. “The porn movie at that time was more conservative than the current films.” Jackie’s big break finally came in Rush Hour in 1998.

Bizarre

I do not know whether to laugh or be grossed out? Leaning towards being grossed out.

A drunken Shanghai Knight?
July 11th, 2006 under Jackie Chan, Movie Star Gossip. [ Comments: none ]

Jackie Chan disrupted a concert by Taiwanese singer-songwriter Jonathan Lee and exchanged insults with the audience, a news report said Tuesday.
Ming Pao Daily News quoted the 52-year-old action star as saying onstage that he was drunk.
Chan suddenly jumped on the stage Monday night and demanded a duet with Lee. He then tried to conduct the band but stopped and restarted the music several times, the newspaper reported.
As the awkward interruption dragged on, audience members started to heckle Chan, who replied with an insult, according to the report.
A spokesman for Chan, Solon So, said he hadn’t seen Chan since the alleged incident and had no immediate comment. He said he didn’t attend the concert.
Concert organizers didn’t immediately return a call seeking comment.
Chan, whose Hollywood credits include the "Rush Hour" series and "The Tuxedo," was an invited performing guest at Lee’s show Sunday night.
