Why haven't Chow Yun Fat and Jackie Chan worked together in movies so far?

Chow Yun Fat once said in an interview that he would not cooperate with Jackie Chan, and explained why-the works he is good at are different from those Jackie Chan is good at. If we cooperate together, it will be counterproductive and not good for both sides.

This is probably the main reason why two people don't cooperate.

One takes the heroic route and the other takes the comic book kung fu route, which is really different.

If you analyze it carefully, there are probably the following reasons:

First of all, their styles are different:

Chow Yun Fat's classic characters are Li Mubai (Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon), Xu Wenqiang (Shanghai Beach), King of Siam (Anna and the King), Mark (Hero), AG (Gambling God), Confucius (Founder of Confucianism) and so on.

He is good at portraying chivalrous characters, and there are usually several supporting actors or protagonists in his works, which is called "the film of Chow Yun Fat and his friends".

Jackie Chan's classic characters are detective (never admit defeat), private detective (city hunter), police officer Li (rush hour), special agent Jackie Chan (who am I), archaeologist Jack (myth) and so on.

Jackie Chan was born in Xing Wu, so most of his works are action-oriented with humorous elements.

As can be seen from their roles, Chow Yun Fat is good at performing chivalrous and domineering types and is a powerful actor.

Jackie Chan, on the other hand, is good at acting both in action and comedy, and is a master of kung fu.

There is still a big difference between the two styles. If they cooperate, the painting style will be very strange.

As Chow Yun Fat said: "Jackie Chan's box office is 30 million, and my box office is 20 million, but it doesn't necessarily add up to 50 million."

Therefore, only from the perspective of fitness, the possibility of cooperation between the two is not great.

Second, the protagonists of both of them are too busy to contract a play.

Anyone who knows them knows that every play they take after they become famous is starring, and both of them are people with very strong protagonists. As the saying goes, "one mountain can't accommodate two tigers", and cooperation between two people with too strong protagonists may not be good.

It is said that Jackie Chan invited Chow Yun Fat to cooperate several times, but Chow Yun Fat refused on the grounds that the script was inappropriate, which shows that Fage has a very clear position on himself.

Chow Yun Fat once said in a program that Jackie Chan's movies only have the leading role and are not suitable for him.

Since Chow Yun Fat doesn't want to, it's hard to cooperate.

Third, for the sake of position and interests.

It is said that Andy belongs to New Art City Film Co., Ltd., and Andy belongs to Emperor Entertainment in Jackie Chan's early days. Later, he and Yang Shoucheng, the president of Emperor, jointly established Jackie Chan Emperor Film Co., Ltd., and then established Jackie Chan China Economic Company.

Thus, Chow Yun Fat and Jackie Chan are not artists of the same brokerage company.

Since they are not artists from the same company, there is bound to be box office competition, so it is unlikely that the two will cooperate from the standpoint and interests.

Fourth, from the director's point of view, the two are not suitable for cooperation.

It is said that Andy Lau once proposed to invite five top filmmakers to co-produce a film to save the Hong Kong film market, but his idea was quickly opposed by some directors, who thought that Andy Lau's original intention was good, but the idea was unrealistic.

Because the five best actors have five styles, if they are put together, it is difficult to reconcile and find the center. In addition, the salaries of the five best actors are very high, which is beyond the reach of ordinary production companies, and it is difficult to produce a director who can direct the five best actors.

So in general, it is ideal to act separately.

As a fan, I hope to see my favorite excellent actors competing on the same stage on the big screen.

Jackie Chan and Chow Yun Fat became famous in the 1980s and 1990s, and they are the leading figures in China film and television circles until now. Many people want to see them PK in a movie.

Jackie Chan has said more than once that he wants to cooperate with Chow Yun Fat first, but Chow Yun Fat refused.

First, let's take a look at their fame. As can be seen from the time axis, the difference between their debut time and their fame time is one or two years. When we were young and didn't study well, our parents always compared other people's children.

They are the same. In moderns, a Hong Kong film in the 1980s and 1990s, the two were always compared by others.

Chow Yun Fat's performance needs high acting skills. Whether it's loyalty and loyalty, Confucian sage Confucius, or Yuan Shikai in "The Early Renaissance", the carved characters are lifelike.

Jackie Chan, an action actor in comedy, is a real and desperate actor who performed miracles with his body in an era when special effects were underdeveloped.

Jackie Chan invited Chow Yun Fat to cooperate many times, but Chow Yun Fat refused. The reason is that without a good script, he can't make a movie that caters to the audience.

1, there is a saying that "two tigers are not allowed in one mountain"

If two people really cooperate, who is the leading role and who is the supporting role in a movie? As the leading figures in the film and television circle, they all have their own theoretical system for filming. If they are on the same set, whose style should they position the film according to? At that time, there will inevitably be differences, and even "immortals" and stars will take sides. Take Zhao Hezhen as an example. They are both very good action actors. They could have fought each other in a play, but in the end, they did have bad words.

If you don't cooperate or keep friends, cooperation is not necessarily a friend. Who will do it?

They have been in the film and television industry for so many years, they must know what they are doing. Is Jackie Chan's invitation to Chow Yun Fat to cooperate appreciated? Give back to the public? Is it to build a brand-new IP and a new hero in China? Chow Yun Fat turned down Jackie Chan's invitation because there was no good script? Is it because there is no timetable? Is it because their styles are different?

Nothing in a person's life is absolute, but it is possible that one day, because of something, it is not impossible for two people to appear in a movie.

Chow Yun Fat, Jackie Chan and Stephen Chow represented the golden age of the Hong Kong film market, and "10% in two weeks" was also the absolute guarantee of the box office at that time. Why did Jackie Chan and Stephen Chow cooperate in The Glass Bottle and king of comedy, and they acted as a walk-on in each other's films? Chow Yun Fat has never cooperated with these two men? Does Chow Yun Fat have a problem with both of them?

Of course not. Chow Yun Fat and Jackie Chan have never really cooperated for three important reasons: the two superstars have different styles, and cooperative films cannot reconcile this contradiction; Both superstars are top players, but there are too few movies that can highlight the charm of two actors at the same time, and no one can lag behind; The two superstars have different personalities, which also hinders cooperation.

Jackie Chan's film and television style is very limited. Whether it's Drunken Boxing and Never Give Up, or Hollywood's famous Hongfan District and Rush Hour, until the Chinese Zodiac and Kung Fu Yoga in recent years, although the story packaging is different, the film styles are very similar. As a result, Jackie Chan's performance was limited, so his performance could only drop to the second place after the action play.

The film and television styles of the two film emperors are different. Chow Yun Fat can control all kinds of movies, but Jackie Chan seems to be only adept at comedy and action movies. If two actors cooperate, whose style should they prefer?

Chow Yun Fat is a low-key star we are familiar with. Going to the vegetable market to buy food in person and taking the subway like ordinary people are all things that Jackie Chan dare not think about. Do they have a problem with each other's lifestyles? We don't know. But there is no doubt that different personalities are the biggest gap in their cooperation.

Therefore, it is uncertain whether the two film winners can cooperate in the film. As fans, we certainly hope that the two big bosses who dominate the film market can join hands to bring us classics. However, due to various reasons, the cooperation between the two is far away.

In 1980s, Shanghai Beach, starring Chow Yun Fat, vividly showed the wildness and kindness of Xu Wenqiang who had strayed into a gang, and let us know the past of Hong Kong society for the first time, as well as the style of Hong Kong films and the acting skills of actors. It is no exaggeration to say that when I saw the beach that year, the young men around me said they would flee from Hong Kong to Feng Chengcheng, and the young women said they would flee from Hong Kong to Xu Wenqiang. But it also shows that the characters in this TV series deeply attracted young people from the mainland and became popular all over the country overnight. The theme song of Shanghai Beach has resounded through the streets: "The waves are swift and the waves are flowing, and Wan Li and Tao Tao will never stop" ... and then they started (the legendary swordsman) (true colors of heroes) (Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon) and so on. In that closed era, Chow Yun Fat's superb expressive force. It also established his unshakable position in gambling films. He not only won the Best Actor Award in the Hong Kong Film Awards for many times, but also won the silver bauhinia star of the SAR Government, and was named one of the 100 outstanding actors in China films in the past 100 years by the China Film Performing Arts Society. ...

International superstars Jackie Chan and Chow Yun Fat are Hong Kong actors of the same era. They have seen (oyster-shaped cunning hands) (drunken fist) (never lose) (red powder area) (rush hour), and the real kung fu they practiced in their early years brilliantly explained the bravery and fearlessness of the characters on the screen, so they successfully entered Hollywood and were rated as the 20 greatest action movie stars in history by The New York Times and the first actor who performed the most stunts by Guinness World Records. 16860.868686866 1 16

As two outstanding actors in the same era, Chow Yun Fat's role is to win with wisdom and acting skills, while Jackie Chan's performance is a real martial arts stunt. I'm afraid it's a different way of playing. Their roles are not arranged well. So they are just free and unrestrained in their respective fields, which is also quite good. If you are reluctant to be together, I am afraid that they will interfere with each other and affect the role.

Kung fu superstar Jackie Chan

First of all, Chow Yun Fat and Jackie Chan are both big brothers in film and television circles. However, Jackie Chan is an action actor, while Chow Yun Fat mainly plays roles in drama films. Such differences in style make it difficult for them to appear in the same work.

Then, Chow Yun Fat's film and television styles varied, from Xu Wenqiang on the beach to Mark in Hero. The characters in his works are full of three-dimensional characters, and the rough appearance wraps the delicate heart. Later Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon and Let Bullets Fly once again proved Chow Yun Fat's performance strength. He didn't stand by and act, but relied on acting. On the other hand, Jackie Chan's movies basically have a style, which is the constant dramatization of action movies.

In addition, because Jackie Chan and Chow Yun Fat are the absolute first heroes in the film, it is difficult to write a script on how to balance the scenes without affecting the quality of the film. Actually, Jackie Chan and Chow Yun Fat have a chance to cooperate, but just because Chow Yun Fat read the script doesn't mean that we are not cooperating for the sake of cooperation. Our cooperation is to make the audience "wow" rather than cooperate casually, so the script is a big problem.

Well, the theater will end today. If you have anything to say to me, please leave a message in the comments section! I will share my feelings with you as soon as I see it.

Jackie Chan and Chow Yun Fat are both famous movie stars, and their influence and acting skills in the film industry are ashes, but why have they never cooperated?
