Jackie is probably the biggest star in Asia and his action-filled movie can stun everyone on the planet earth. Trained in the Peking Opera (Jing1 Ju4) to perform such grueling tasks as 8-hour-long standing on head, Jackie developed finely tuned bodies adept at performing superhuman acrobatics.
With the success of 1978's Drunken Master (Zui4 Quan2), Jackie made himself well-known star for super kung-fu (martial arts) skills as well as comedy performance. His style persisted and gained huge popularity, especially in Asia.
Jackie is now leaping into the western world. Recently, according to a filmzone report, Jackie received MTV's Lifetime Achievement Movie Award and his U.S.-targeted Rumble in the Bronx (Hong2 Fan1 Qu1) has been widely released by New Line Cinema.
One of his latest work in Hollywood is "Rush Hour".
