Vi kender alle historierne om, hvordan Jackie gang på gang på nærmest
mirakuløs vis har overlevet stunts, der gik galt. Denne gang var det tæt
på, at Chan kunne have sluttet sig til rækken af ofre i forrige tirsdags
tragiske hændelse i World Trade Center. En af hans nyeste film under
produktion er Nosebleed og handler som bekendt om Jackie Chan som
vinduespudser i WTC, som uforvarende bliver indblandet og får
information om terroristangreb i N.Y. Mon ikke produktionen nu helt
stoppes?
"[Jackie Chan] was due to be filming at the Center on the morning of the
terrorist attack. Luckily for him, the script with the scene in question
was late in arriving and so the scene, in which Chan was playing a
window cleaner, was postponed.
'Filming was scheduled to have taken place at 7 am last Tuesday
morning,' Chan told the Oriental Daily News, 'and as I had to be at the
top of one of the towers for one of the scenes, I would probably have
died if the shooting went ahead as planned.'
The film in question, Nosebleed,has had to be completely rethought
following the disaster. Chan was supposed to be playing a window cleaner
who while working at the World Trade Center discovers a terrorist plot
to blow up the Statue of Liberty. 'It might have been written that way,
but that's not the way we're going to do it," a spokesperson for MGM
said.

Nåh men produktionen er også igang på Highbinders og The Tuxedo så mon
ikke det er de næste Chan-film vi ser. En inden jul og en til det
kinesiske nytår.
