Jackie Chan’s New Look Sparked Health Concerns

Jackie Chan didn’t confirm which movie his new look is for, but it’s worth noting that he’ll reprise the role of Mr. Han in an upcoming «Karate Kid» movie co-starring Ralph Macchio. Han is very reminiscent of the wise and gray Mr. Miyagi (Pat Morita) from the franchise’s original three films, and he’s probably aged since we last saw him in the 2010 «Karate Kid» reboot. Han is also a man of great wisdom, and gray hair would provide a way of visually enhancing this element of his personality.

Of course, Chan has plenty of other projects in the works and shows no signs of giving up the types of adrenaline-pumping roles he’s known for. In addition to «The Karate Kid,» fans can look forward to seeing him in action comedies like «Rush Hour 4,» «Panda Plan,» and «New Police Story 2.» He’s bound to throw some fists and kick people in those flicks, which should put to bed any lingering doubts some people might have about his health.
