Jackie Chan is done making Kung Fu movies
Jackie Chan no longer wants to make Kung-Fu movies. And to make things quite clear, he was never really into the Rush Hour films either but they made him an offer he couldn’t refuse.
Now he says he wants to become the “Asia Robert DeNiro or Dustin Hoffman.”
“The thing is, I can’t just make Rush Hour one, two and three and Drunken Master one and two and Police Story one to six. I know I have to change,” he says.
“I’ve wanted to do it for the last few years and I hope people can accept it. I want to play a good guy and a bad guy and would love to be the Asian Robert De Niro or Dustin Hoffman.
“I don’t like the Rush Hour films but the fact is they generated hundreds and hundreds of millions and they’re paying us really well.”
What? He didn’t like making the Rush Hour films? I loved all 3 of those!
The action star is currently promoting his latest film Shinjuku Incident which premiered at the Hong Kong International Film Festival last night.
