Continuing to destroy any dialogue of retirement is action cinema legend, Jackie Chan. His plate is already full but with Chan, you can pretty much expect him to have extra plates handy, especially with his activity over at Cannes.
Word from THR writes that Chan will star in a fresh new $50 million dollar action comedy, Railroad Tigers, with the intent to reverb the greatness of previous classics like Project A and Drunken Master 2 while aiming for no less than the usual "bigger and better" approach to production value, action and stunts. The film will reteam him for a third outing with director Deng Sheng since their previous paring on Little Big Soldier in 2010, and Police Story 2013 a few years ago.
Here, Chan will star as a railroad worker in China who bands together with a group of freedom fighters to use their knowledge of the railway system to cripple the Japanese armed forces. The film is being represented by Hong Kong-based Golden Network Asia as filming sets with a release for next October with Sparkle Roll Media Corp, Shanghai Film Group, Beijing Going Zoom Media and Shanghai New Culture Media Group backing the production.
Chan just recently earned box-office acclaim with the Chinese period epic, Dragon Blade, directed by Daniel Lee. The action legend is expected to commense filming KungFu Yoga in India this Autumn for director Stanley Tong while further news is pending on other titles, including Renny Harlin's Skiptrace for Exclusive Media, and Peter Segal's Civilian for IM Global.
Police Story 2013 will hit limited theaters in the U.S. on June 5 courtesy of Well Go USA.
