Jackie Chan (born in 7th of April, in 1954)


This person needs no introduction. The most recognizable actor from the famous comedy action movies. His fan’ clubs collect over 15,000 fans, but how he achieved this goal?
J. Chan was born in 1954 in Hong Kong city. Chan Kong-Sang his real name which means “born in Hong Kong” was given by his parents.

His first debut took place when he was 8 years old, in Cantonese movie “Big and Little Wong Tin Bar”.  After this Hong Kong movie industry began to fail. Jackie faced with some problems and went with his parents to Australia working as labor until he met Willie Chan (who became his friend and manager). Willie invited him to come back to Hong Kong and started again his actor carrier. Those new movies that were offered by Willie Chan unfortunately weren’t successful.

Somehow after the death of martial art legend Bruce Lee, Jackie Chan was something new because he came up with his own idea of combination martial art and humor. Actually there were a lot of Asian guys who tried to duplicate Bruce Lee but despite of this Jackie Chan just showed his talent and creativity. That was new door to success for Jackie. “I just do the best I can” Chan says modestly. 


Chan’s enthusiasm and talent helped him to find necessary roles for him. All those factors helped him to be second unit director and that happened before his 20th birthday. 

Nowadays Jackie Chan is still one of the most famous actors across Asia and America. "For the past fifteen years, I’ve gone almost nonstop," Chan says. "As soon as I finish one movie, they start filming the next. Sometimes, they give me one week’s holiday, and then I'm flying back to Hong Kong to start talking about my next film."

One of his famous movies “Rush Hour 3” Worldwide Grossed $258,022,233.
As we can see Jackie Chan is not afraid of risks, he likes to try new roles and he has never EVER asked for a stuntman. He actually was a stuntman when he was in Australia with his parents.


Jackie Chan is Unique because:
He never asks for the stuntman (maybe because he used to be before)

He likes to try himself in different genre of movies

He creates his own “Humor-Martial art”  style in the movies he plays

There is no any insurance company that wants to have a business with Jackie.
