Hong Kong action movie star Jackie Chan said he is getting too old to do the stunts that made him famous and hopes to prove to audiences he can act too.

"The life of an action star is very short. I want to be an actor like Robert De Niro, like Dustin Hoffman or Clint Eastwood who in their 70s or 80s can still act," the 51-year-old Chan said at the world premiere of his latest film "The Myth" at the Toronto International Film Festival.

that's because he is running out of female action stars he can bed down with, so he is moving to just regular female actors - new meat.

Did you know that Jackie Chan actually turned down an offer from Playboy a few years ago to pose nude with naked bunnies ?

Jackie Chan has been saying this for a while. He has always wanted to be a serious actor. Though he publicly criticizes Wong Kar Wai films, so don't expect them to collaborate anytime soon. :D

After the amount of green/blue screen usage I saw in The Myth on Wednesday, it's quite obvious.
