In November 2016, Hong Kong actor Jackie Chan, considered the most popular movie star in the world, received Hollywood’s highest distinction. This award, rarely presented to comedy actors, placed Chan among his greatest idols: Harold Lloyd, Buster Keaton, and Charlie Chaplin. Known for his explosive kung fu, schoolboy humor, and unbelievable stunts achieved without special effects, Jackie Chan made his first film appearances in the early 80s and quickly established himself as the greatest hero in the Asian film industry. With a career spanning over 200 films, the actor and director has revolutionized the rhythm of action scenes and created one of the funniest and most endearing characters in modern cinema.
