 Jackie Chan mini-bio: Following the death of martial arts legend Bruce Lee, the search was on for an actor who could inspire audiences to the same degree; every young martial artist was given a chance. Chan decided that rather than emulating Lee (and thus living forever in his shadow), he would develop his own style of filmmaking. His directorial debut Shi di chu ma (1980) was a milestone in martial arts films, being one of the first to effectively combine comedy with action. This set the tone for many of his future films, which combined slapstick humor with high-energy martial arts action. A self-confessed fan of Buster Keaton and Harold Lloyd, Chan performs all his own stunts, quite often at his own peril. His later films include outtakes of his on-set injuries run under the closing credits. He is understandably number one on the insurance blacklist.  | |||||||||||||

Jakie Chan is one of my altime favorite actors. He really is a good actor, he is really funny and I also like the way he kicks butt.. I wish I knew how to do that. If anyone would ask me what 2 of may wishes were apart fom knowing martial arts like Jakie Chan it would be to meet, hang out with Jakie and to became an actress, so I can work along my fave actors and it'd be awesome if I could make a movie with Jakie Chan!
