Jackie Chan questions Tom Cruise's stunt performance

Jackie Chan's latest action film CHINESE ZODIAC (SUP YI SUN CHIU) will open this holiday season and complete production in May. Currently only the 4 minute long climax has not been shot yet. Jackie Chan said that this 4 minute long scene might take two months to finish and will shoot in Hong Kong and other locations. It will have a very dangerous stunt, even more dangerous than Tom Cruise's Burj Khalifa jump in MISSION IMPOSSIBLE GHOST PROTOCOL.

He revealed that at first he thought of shooting at Burj Khalifa in Dubai, but changed his mind when he remembered that the audience might misunderstand that he was imitating Tom Cruise. Jackie Chan asked reporters if they thought Tom Cruise would really jump the tower? In his past experience the insurance company absolutely would not permit him to jump; back then he too wanted to jump the Effiel Tower in Paris, France but the insurance company prohibited him from doing so.

Jackie Chan guaranteed in CHINESE ZODIAC he personally performed all the stunts. In the past he was able to jump two stories but now he was able to jump only half a floor, at least he did it himself. In comparison to many Hollywood stars, they could not jump even half a floor.

Earlier Jackie Chan attended an event to promote a Chinese wine that was named after him. Karen Mok Man Wai, Li Bingbing and Coco Lee Man came in support; Jackie Chan praised Li Bingbing's tolerance. Jackie Chan revealed that when they made 1911, he and Li Bingbing had an emotional scene. Before the shoot she drank half a bottle of red wine and a bottle of Baiju before they were able to overcome their mental block and achieved battlefield romance.
