Jackie Chan’s career, which spans over 60 years and 200 films, was defined by a singular rejection of being the "next Bruce Lee". Following the death of Bruce Lee, film producers like Lo Wei initially attempted to mold Chan into a stoic, traditional martial arts lead. This commitment to originality propelled him to global stardom, resulting in an Honorary Academy Award in 2016 and a total global box office impact exceeding $6 billion.
