Jackie Chan, who recently turned 70, addressed the concerns of his fans after a photo of him with gray hair and a beard went viral. The photo caused speculation about his health status, but Chan reassured his fans that the look was for a character in his latest movie and not indicative of his actual health.
In an Instagram post, Chan thanked his fans for their support throughout his career, which has spanned over 62 years. He expressed gratitude for the opportunities he has had in the entertainment industry and shared that he loves making movies.
Chan’s latest project is a new Karate Kid movie in which he will play Mr. Han, a kung fu master. He previously played this character in Sony’s 2010 Karate Kid remake and helped Jaden Smith’s character on screen.
The viral photos that sparked concern were taken at an event where Chan was on stage holding a microphone and papers. Despite some worry from fans about his health status, Chan reassured them that he is doing well and thanked them for their continued support as he continues to pursue his passion for acting in film.
