Now, Jackie Chan has announced his retirement as an action star and he will be no more doing the stunts. It’s the age factor which is taking physical toll on this 58 year old actor who has almost done 100 action films in his career and all of them winning international acclaims.
Currently, there is one new production ‘Chinese Zodiac.’ Here is the opinion shared by Jackie Chan on his good bye to action films. ‘World wide, there is an increase in violence which had put me off from action. I am not young any more, so thought of retiring. Personally, I love fighting and action but dislike violence. I wanted to be a true actor. For this, I should get rid of my image. I can also do good comedy and people should recognize me also as a comedian. From now on, you will see a new Jackie Chan.’ So, let us wish Jackie Chan all the best for starting his new career in this late age.
