Jackie Chan is celebrating his 71st birthday today. As a number of online tributes attest, he is one of the most acclaimed actors of his generation.
Popular actor Jackie Chan (Shanghai Noon, Rush Hour, Police Story, ...) has always liked to keep a bit of himself hidden from view. At 71st birthday, he remains a man of many facets.
Chan, a cultural icon
Born in Hong Kong on April 7, 1954, Jackie Chan's career spans an arc over many different eras and tastes in history. Chan's not just a great actor, he's an inspiration, an icon and a successful business man. At this point in his career, there seems to be little Jackie hasn't done.
And we've got a feeling the next 12 months are going to be even bigger and better for Jackie Chan as he promises more to come. After all, he's only 71.
Happy Birthday, Jackie, you're the best!
