Chan scouts out new action stars |
Actor Jackie Chan has launched a TV show in China aimed at scouting out fresh action film talent.
The 53-year-old stuntman claims 100,000 people have already signed up to take part in the programme.
"A lot of actors are good at fighting but (their style) is not beautiful," he told an audience in Beijing.
The TV show - whose English title is The Disciple - will run from March to October, with 10 winners appearing in a movie which will be produced by Chan.
In January Chan set up a new production company in China with plans to make 10 films.
He has appeared in more than 100 films, including the popular Rush Hour series.
Chan is also famous for doing his own stunts in elaborate fight sequences.
In December he was hurt during filming a scene for the upcoming Rush Hour 3. |
