Jackie Chan filmography

Performances by Hong Kong actor From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Jackie Chan began his film career as an extra child actor in the 1962 film Big and Little Wong Tin Bar. Ten years later, he was a stuntman opposite Bruce Lee in 1972's Fist of Fury and 1973's Enter the Dragon. He then had starring roles in several kung fu films, such as 1973's Little Tiger of Canton and 1976's New Fist of Fury. His first major breakthrough was the 1978 kung fu action comedy film Snake in the Eagle's Shadow, which was shot while he was loaned to Seasonal Film Corporation under a two-picture deal.[1] He then enjoyed huge success with similar kung fu action comedy films such as 1978's Drunken Master and 1980's The Young Master. Jackie Chan began experimenting with elaborate stunt action sequences in The Young Master[2] and especially Dragon Lord (1982).[3]

1983's Project A saw the official formation of the Jackie Chan Stunt Team and established Chan's signature style of elaborate, dangerous stunts combined with martial arts and slapstick humor, a style he further developed in a more modern setting with 1984's Wheels on Meals and notably 1985's Police Story, which contained numerous large-scale action scenes[4] and is considered one of the best action films of all time.[5] Chan continued his style of slapstick martial arts mixed with elaborate stunts in numerous other films, such as: the Police Story sequels, the Armour of God series, Project A Part II (1987), Dragons Forever (1988), Twin Dragons (1992), City Hunter (1993), and Drunken Master II (1994), among others. Rumble in the Bronx (1995) made Jackie Chan a mainstream celebrity in North America, leading to a successful Hollywood career with the Rush Hour and Shanghai series. In 2000, Chan produced an animated series Jackie Chan Adventures, which ran until 2005.[6] In 2010, Jackie Chan appeared in his first dramatic role in an American film, The Karate Kid.[7] In 2017, the Chinese-Indian co-production Kung Fu Yoga became his highest-grossing film in China.[8] As of 2021, Jackie Chan has appeared in nearly 150 films.[9]

At the box office, ten of his films earned nearly US$200,000,000 (equivalent to $600,000,000 in 2025) worldwide between 1985 and 1989.[10] By the mid-1990s, he had become the most popular action movie star in Asia and Europe, with at least 20 films (out of 40 films) up until then, earning him a net income of $5 million per film.[11] In East Asia, his films collectively grossed HK$1.14 billion (US$146 million) in Hong Kong between 1973 and 2010,[12] ¥48.4 billion (US$607 million) in Japan between 1979 and 2012,[13] and over US$72 million in South Korea between 1991 and 2010,[14] while topping the Taiwan box office ten times between 1982 and 1994.[15] In Europe, his films collectively sold about 84 million tickets between 1973 and 2010.[16] As of 2021, his films have grossed over CN¥14 billion (US$2.17 billion) in China,[17] and US$1.84 billion[18] (more than US$2.44 billion adjusted for inflation) in the United States and Canada.[19] As of 2018, 48 of his films listed by The Numbers have grossed more than US$5 billion at the worldwide box office.[18]
