Jackie Chan in Conversation
Vložit
- čas přidán 10. 08. 2016
- 20 years after he first appeared in front of cameras in Australia, martial arts superstar and acting legend Jackie Chan gave his first public talk at Sydney Opera House. Exploring his extraordinary life and career - from the '78 Hong Kong hit Drunken Master and Hollywood breakthrough Rumble in the Bronx to the upcoming Bleeding Steel (to be filmed in Sydney) - the Chinese superstar discussed his signature blend of comedy and kung-fu, his life-long commitment to philanthropy, and his relationship with Australia since first living here with his family.
At seven years of age, Jackie Chan was enrolled in the China Drama Academy to hone his skills in martial arts and Chinese Opera. As the Hong Kong film industry reached a new peak in popularity, he jumped into stunt-work, quickly gaining a reputation for his inventive and fearless style. When the local film industry suffered a decline, he relocated to Australia to join his family but returned to Hong Kong to achieve the break-through movie success that set him on the path to becoming the screen icon we know today.
A tireless cultural ambassador who has revolutionised the film industry, Jackie Chan delighted audiences as he discussed his celebrated life and career during an intimate and lively discussion on the Concert Hall stage.

Who is here in 2024❤❤❤❤❤❤
You not alone buddy😊
I'm here too 🥰
Right here
Me too
Me!!
I wish Jackie Chan could live forever. There won't be another one like him.
yes you are right, he is second Bruce Lee who is alive
@@kawachshrestha8850 he's not second Bruce Lee dude he's the first and last the one and only Jackie Chan..
@@urb3361 Bruce Lee was really huge in his days, Jackie Chan was looking up to him. It's crazy to think how much he surpassed him but I can't help but wonder what would Jackie Chan be like today if Bruce Lee didn't die so young.
He is unique as both actor and person too..very down to earth though ultimately talented ...❤️
His body needs to be cryo-frozen and then he will be revived when the technology will allow that in the future. That's how he will live forever.
The moment he described Bruce Lee left in a cab and looked at Jackie for few seconds sounded like a mega star was giving his legacy to the next mega star, what a amazing story and coincidence
I feel you buddy, I feel you .. I read this comment and searched fast forwarded to the Bruce Lee story..
I just love how Jackie Chan turns the conversation into a theatrical scenery
Yup. True clown
@@bernardochill2535You're a clown yourself and Jackie's a Legend😡☝🏽
I love how he can't sit down while he is telling a story. So energetic.
I thought that too, but then he said I'm OCD and ADHD then I understood why he can't sit calm.

When i was growing up i was likethat, and they diagnosed me with autism LMAO
@AllAroundKeenSagittariusAthleteWorker lol u do know that stuff isn't real right?
@@davidkim7574 bruh 💀
Great props for the host to not budge in or interrupt Jackie's speech like any typical host.
Lord Pigster agrees
Yea
He's so much more than a 'host' - Li Cunxin is a Chinese-Australian celebrity in and of himself. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mao%27s_Last_Dancer_(book) en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Li_Cunxin
The host is a world famous ballet dancer (in the movie "Mao's Last Dancer").
This movie was ABOUT him. Defected to US became famous here. Moved to Australia and now teaches.
Huge respect for host for not acting typical and interrupting again and again... huge love for jackie..
Thats so true,, the host often interrupts their guest which drives me crazy, makes me turn the channel...but this host is very polite. i love jackie chan...
He feels like he has a lot of positive energy and lessons to share. Not because he wants the next generation to be a certain way, but from all the hard knocks he’s survived, he genuinely appreciates the lessons he has learned and wants to share. Obviously he is very proud of himself for letting go of himself and learning them but his lessons stem from appreciation and not pride.
One of the most honest, kind, cheerful and inspiring guys out there.
and interesting and funny and talented and smart and.... and... and.....
Despite he´s an actor he´s very real...A rare quality.
And a very, very funny man as well.
And rich. 😀
so modest and humble (I don't know many other successful actors with these qualities) Jackie is the great!
its rare to see the humble people like him after reaching the height in their life...
Just seeing him smiling even before he talks makes you happy. He's got such a sweet soul. One of my childhood heroes
Jackie Chan shows humanity how tough we really can be..he is totally awesome.🤗🤗🤣🤣
I love how much RESPECT he has to Stand up every time and address the audience. This man is the last living hero of a great generation. Jackie has truly become a dragon... Wise, powerful, beautiful and immortal in both his movies and his spirit.

I'm from Hong Kong. Everyone in HK don't like Jackie Chan, because we all know what he did to other people, please if you could read some of his news from asia media not just from english media. He lie to the whole world said that he did all the stunts, but unfortunately it's a lie.
He IS the dragon, so true. 🙏
@@joegracejoe what he did in the past doesn't bother me at all. He is talented and a good person, why would I read the news from China that speaks badly about someone I already think is cool? Negativity is so lame. If you don't like him and are offended, then find your own hero. He's mine.
@@joegracejoe😢
He makes me laugh a lot. Facial expression and the way he talks, makes me happy.
Charles Tran I am a fan
His facial expressions, his endearing smile, overall body language speaks volumes about how wonderful and genuine he is..!! Such a beautiful soul..! God bless him with lots and lots of happiness..! There cannot be anyone like him again..
I never sat for an hour to see anyone interview or speech in my life.... Love you Jackie Chan
There would never be another jackie chan a real legend admire him so much
People overuse the term beloved about famous people. But with Jackie it really is appropriate. A legend.
This interview is such a treat. He has so much charisma he can charm a crowd in a language that's not his native tongue.
Jackie Chan…I reckon there won’t be one person in the world who would not fall in love with this fantastic human being after seeing him speak just fir a few minutes! So humble, genuine and down to earth…..May he live forever!
I love that he could speak about Bruce Lee freely as long as he wanted without any interuption from the host.This is the only time i have seen Jackie Chan express himself fully.He really loved Bruce Lee just as everybody else did and does and Lee himself really saw in Jackie that he was a great martial artist with amazing speed and timing.Its no question that Bruce Lee saw something unique and special in him and Jackie felt this.They really began to bound as friends and i bet if Bruce was alive he would definitly do a movie with Jackie right after game of death but sadly the dragon died and the little dragon was born..Really moving and an touching song at the end too.You are the greatest mr Chan.
ikr, that bruce gave him a long look before he got on the taxi, and months later, he passed away. and thats their last time together. first time I hear this story from Jackie, its incredible
After Bruce went to Hollywood and left British Hong Kong he made Jackie a star in bhk cinema Bruce became a Hugh Hollywood hit in 1980s in 1990s then his son Brandon became a major international movie martial arts sensation in the the mid 1990s and 2000s later in 2010s Brandon lees son Brandon Lee jr became a Hugh international martial arts icon in many martial arts films in Asia Europe and Hollywood thankfully we now have martial arts cinema world wide even in Greenland
@@phillipconner8329 I like that you know Greenland i live there.
Bruce lee is the 'small dragon' and jackie is that new dragon
Can't believe I finish the whole interview without stopping done at 2am . love Jackie, very humble and so true.
It’s 2:00 and I’m reading this comment lol good timing weird 3y later
👌❤️

@@joegracejoe, Okay. Firstly, tell me what he did to other people. You can't try to villify another person by such a sweeping statement. You must have evidence to prove he was really bad.
Secondly,I know why the people of HK don't like him. Bcs he's proud of being Chinese. He stated in his speech he was proud to be Chinese when he won the grammy award.
You Hong Kees imagine yourselves to be British Lolz even though you look Chinese. Come on,no matter what you shall always look Chinese.
If you look at history HK clearly belonged to China and still does. If you don't like that fact go jump into the sea. There's so much sea,all around HK. Nobody is stopping you. Go on,go go go LMAOooo...
This one-and-a-half-hour session is a true gift for everyone, from the legendary Jackie Chan, to learn so much about life. His humor, talent, philosophy, stage presence, communication, hard work, dedication, and above all, his humility, leave me speechless and emotional. I love you, Jackie ❤😊 You are a gift from nature☺️
He is such a darling. A guy who is so humble, no sirs about him.
No airs about him.
I don't know why this video didn't go viral! A man the whole world has to respect him for all the contributions, humbleness and a great human being

@@joegracejoe The stunt comes from the married class
You're number ONE.. Jackie Chan !
Lin Huohuang ..........?
Wow 118 others think so too. So impressive
Jackie has a VIP ticket to heaven.
Dont need a jacket..... Only need to repent from sin n trust in Jesus Christ.....
Actually... no, he probably doesn't.
@@DUpGaming he's a rich person in China, where the government helps the top 1% (just as it is here in the US). What did you expect?

Thanks a lot
Thank you.
I was waiting for this 😅
He wrote a book not too long ago and spoke very honestly saying, I was 20 and a millionaire. No one taught me the right things,” and he wrote the book to tell people “Jackie Chain’s not perfect. Now yes. But then not.” So candid and thoughtful. I hope his book reaches a lot of people, his life and work certainly has.

Really warmed my heart when he talked about Bruce Lee.. Jackie's a great story teller
I teared up when he spoke about world peace and how he try to get ppl come together. So amazing
I love Jackie's unwavering passion for filming as a whole ... A rare gem ... Big Fan of yours Sir since childhood 🙏🙏🙏

This man is a global treasure
What a genuine, humble guy. I never even knew he had lived in Australia.
Me at 5am: turning of my alarm
Jackie at 5am: workout done , shower done, brkfst dne, ready for work.
Me at 5 am:
Time to sleep, enough of gaming for tonight.
Me tak : sleep died😂
Host: "I have to admit, I am Jackie Chan's fan too".
Mankind: "Who the hell isn't?!"
Rewatching this in Sept 2023… I’d the same reaction to the host’s comment, as if it was something he wouldn’t normally admit to. My first thought, “what a snob“ (the host, of course). Then he went into talking more about himself than about Jackie. “And self-centered” was my 2nd thought. Good thing he had scripted questions that were directly about Jackie. 😅
I’m on a Jackie Chan interview marathon and I can’t stop. He’s just so lovable to watch. Not just entertaining but you gain some wise knowledge from each one. He’s a very intelligent guy. May we remember and celebrate his life while he’s still here with us in 2023 and forward.
Same here
i love how genuine and animated his interview where you just fill that warmth of charisma and happy and how down to earth he is
Jackie is the most amazing man there is in the Industry; we met him 3 times while filming tuxedo, he did the stunts and practiced and introduced his Fashion Line, he singed and took pictures with who was there. He was so patient to take a picture and then there was no film in the camera so he made a joke and we went back the following week and he was as always, amazing. People do not even blink or breathe when he is practicing or doing stunts. The best!!!!
Wish we have more long interviews, cannot get enough of this genuine person❤❤❤
I learned a lot from the up and down Jackie Chan.. I respect him, he is so humble and love to smile... His smile is so sincere... Peace for everyone in the world...
Jackie is the only person I can listen to for 20 minutes on how he got his name.
That was really awesome, also loved hearing him talk about Bruce Lee.
Me too, didn't know about that... amazing stories...
He talks about bruce lee to bolster himself sad twat
@@bernardochill2535 whats wrong with you?
Jackie can do stand-up comedy just by telling his stories. He's the Best 🙏🏻
He is a real good story teller. Only people with lots of stories and deep understanding can captivate people like this
Jackie please keep coming in different shows more often to teach the good thoughts you have.
This is the only anchor who let Jackie speak. Mostly everyone keep interupting him.
Jackie Chan is awesome!
One of the most honest, kind, cheerful and inspiring guys out there.
absolute legend, thanks for a great night haven't laughed so much in a while.
xTrueLaughter I understand what you said. Me too! He is so charming that make us laugh. I know that feeling, which when you haven't laugh for a while, then you laugh for something.
you are right, thanks for our comment
Yup true clown he is
@@bernardochill2535 clown? Are you out of word in your dictionary?
yea dude
I do believe that even Jackie Chan doesn't speak English really well, he can make the message short and clear, and most importantly, can make people laugh. Jackie Chan is always so jubilant chatting with his fans and having interviews with others.
He understands fine its not perfect his vocabulary is solid.
As same as great Bruce Lee ( "Be water, my friend"--- Bruce Lee, his thoughts're based on 2500 years ago's Chinese
philosopher, Lao Zi ), the great Jackie Chan's super-great work & his honesty, intelligence, braveness & his being
humble & his great humor are actually from Chinese culture basically. *I've watched this interview many times
especially the "Bruce Lee"-part & I often can't help but crying:--- " Oh! Bruce Lee, he touched me!" & " I saw Bruce
Lee held the taxi & looked back me ( for a while ) & he died in a month "--- I often think whenever I watching Bruce
Lee's & Jackie Chan's interviews that--- thanks God, I've been living with great Bruce & Jackie in my living time!!!
If there is one celebrity i would like to have a conversation with it's jackie! one of my all time favorites
Genya Arikado i like to？ thats little bit hard
Really? I would choose James May
I feel like his words in conversations transcends literal meanings, sounds like pure genuineness.
I would forever love that interviewer he never once interrupted him even once 👌🏾

Bruce Lee has been a tremendous inspiration to me my entire life. I have spent many countless hours trying to emulate the way he carried himself and study his philosophy. I cry everytime I read or hear Jackie tell the story of how he met him and how nice he was to him. 2 of the greatest human beings ever to exist.
cause difference is also an obvious one
I agree with you 100%
Yes and for me, I was very young back then when Brandon Lee passed away.
But I just couldn’t believe that was it
and still can’t!
Bruce Lee’s only son!
So perfect & so handsome
I never cried so much for someone I didn’t know.
Maybe it was his fate??
But to me the loss of Brandon Lee was too much to bear! 😭😭
Probably the best conversation I ever heard! Thanks Jackie for sharing honest storiess about yourself! Phenomenal dialogue!
This is the most authentic interview I’ve ever seen. It’s nice to listen to such a legend’s life stories.
he releases some kind of positive energy with his smile and stories and than you feel happy :D
i like it. when the interviewer talk to jackie chan and let jc talked to audience. and just listen and make conversation. THUMBS UP!!!
The most inspiring and touching interview I've ever seen.
I’ve been a huge Jackie Chan fan since I was a young kid
Love this man.
@ 1:05:10 Jackie: "I just hope no more war!" @ 1:05:14 a guy in the audience: "You're the man!"
Gotta love that part! It's the best part in this interview/talk show in my opinion.

I read this as it happened and it was quite the moment!

Jackie-- he never interrupted the great Jackie Chan & just let cute/lovely Jackie being himself & Jackie's so relaxed then!.
What a great celebrity Jackie is.. and how he admits that he grew mature with years.....
Also the host did a great work
This is a great interview. He's a great storyteller. It's also funny to see him give an interview at the same location he just filmed a fight sequence at!
Loved when Jackie Chan was talking about piece and abundance in this world and someone screamed: "You're the man!". Such a truth statement!
I've watched this interview at least 5x. I love Jackie's whole persona!
He oozes old world charisma. Such a classy man. Love his stories
He is an example, no bad words, always classy, funny, talented. the best
Doesn’t matter which country we are from.. we all have that ability to become as great as Jackie. If only! It’s sad that we don’t learn even while he’s here with us. I hope one day we can all be as respectful disciplined and charismatic as this man is. Even with not having English as his forte he has encouraged us Americans.
You bet brother. He's one of a kind
Jackie is a pure respectful kind human
well done jackie chan you deserved that honorary award oscar :)
Sjhsjjssm.super ,nachdem ich freuh mich auf Deinen Lieben
Just love Jackie, such a pure soul. Demonstrating his son is epic. We need discipline in schools. And the whole world is indeed a family - stop the division, stop the hate.
what time? when he talks about discipline??
True words ! Stop hate !
That discipline he share about his son is a universal lesson to all the students (the pillars of tomorrow) 🖤
It was worth watching this amazing interview with JC, for spending more than 2 hrs until 3am , I'm so impressed with his genuine character , passion, the energy he expressed and have huge respect and admiration for him...love you Jackie, ur a wonderful human being not just a living legend ❤
This man fills your heart with happiness as soon when he speaks. There's something special with him.

Have watched several of Mr. Jackie's interviews and I think he is visibly more at ease and more spontaneous on this one. I understand it as him being with his people🥰
Really respect how he narrated about that story about his name. Is it just me or anybody else find him just so charming without trying?😁😅😊🥰
This is the kind of interview I could listen to again and again. There are so many things which could be learned and the beauty of it is they were delivered in a story and conversation form and not in a preach-y, dense sermon.
Legend.

They don’t deserve him
Can we just take a moment to acknowledge the awesomeness of not one but TWO Asian icons sharing the stage, the Little Dragon being interviewed by Mao's Last Dancer, Li Cunxin!
This is my first time seeing Jackie Chan’s talk show and he makes me laugh so much with his real life stories. I enjoyed this more than any of his movies he has ever made, I’d say I watched most of his movies ! He is real here and such an ordinary man but has become so successful for his hard work and endurance and is so kind and gives back so much to society. He is an extraordinarily man ! I remember watching his Drunken Master movie when I was young! I will watch this show again when I’m down as he cheers me up and great message! 成龍加油！
you cannot help it , he is an adorable man on every aspect and makes you feel good when he speaks English like that !!!! What a legend !!!!
A living humble legend. One of my few most favourite actors since my childhood, & whose movies I don't get tired of watching over & over again & that i still laugh whenever i watch them, LITERALLY. Jackie Chan🙌🙌❤
Jackie seems very humble, and personable. He always plays the gentleman, and never uses vulgar language in his movies. Also, a very talented singer. It would be an honour, and a privilege to meet him someday.
Um homen com humidade, respeito, amor, coracao, coragem com forca❤️😍🙌🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
