Last week it was reported that the Hong-Kung born actor, Jackie Chan was
retiring from action movies, but the actor has responded to the wrong
perception of his announcement.
In his response the popular
martial art fighter stated that he is
not retiring from doing action movies but only limiting the amount of
risky stunts he does in his movies.
He expressed his surprise at the wrong perception gotten from his
statement at the ongoing Cannes Film Festival. “In my press conference
in Cannes for
Chinese 12 Zodiac, I said that this movie was my last big action movie.”
“Today I was shocked when I woke up to read all the news coverage that I was retiring from doing action movies.”
“I just want to let everyone know that I am not retiring from doing
action movies. What I meant to say is that I need to do less of the life
risking stunts on my movies. After all these years of doing so many
stunts and breaking so many bones, I need to take better care of my body
so I can keep working.”
He affirmed that he will still be involved
in action movies, saying,
“I will continue to do international action movies” and quipped that “I
will keep improving my English.” “I love all of you!”
