Beloved action icon Jackie Chan is setting the record straight after recent photos of the 70-year-old actor sparked concerns among his fans. In a heartfelt Instagram post, Chan assured his followers that his greyed hair, beard, and aged appearance are simply for a character role in his latest movie.

“Not so long ago, a lot of friends saw some recent photos of me on the internet, and they were all concerned about my health,” Chan wrote in the caption. “I want to take this opportunity to let everyone know, don’t worry! It’s just a character appearance for my latest movie. The character requires me to have white hair, white beard and look old.”

The legendary martial artist and actor went on to explain that he has always been willing to undergo transformations for his roles, no matter how challenging. “Over the years, I’ve always been willing to try new things for a movie, no matter if it’s a challenging stunt or a breakthrough appearance for a character,” he said.

Chan, who celebrated his 70th birthday on April 7th, expressed his shock at reaching the milestone age. “Every time I hear this number, my heart would stop for a second — I’m 70 years old already?” he wrote. However, the actor also shared a saying from his “big brother,” fellow action star Sammo Hung, that “being able to grow old is a fortunate thing,” especially for stunt performers like Chan.

The actor’s reassurance comes after recent photos of him circulated online, showing him with grey hair and an aged appearance that concerned some of his fans. In his post, Chan acknowledged these worries, stating, “A lot of friends saw some recent photos of me on the internet, and they were all concerned about my health.”

While Chan did not disclose the specific role that required his transformation, fans can look forward to seeing the legendary actor back on the big screen soon. He is set to reprise his role as Mr. Han in the upcoming “Karate Kid” sequel, which will unite him with original franchise star Ralph Macchio. The film is slated for release on December 13, 2024.

In his heartfelt message, Chan expressed his continued passion for filmmaking, stating, “I love making movies and I love you all.” He also thanked his fans for the birthday wishes he received, saying, “A big thank you to everyone for all your birthday wishes. Hope everyone stays happy and healthy!”

Jackie Chan’s unwavering commitment to his craft and his ability to defy expectations have made him a beloved figure in the entertainment industry for decades. This latest reassurance to his fans serves as a testament to his enduring spirit and the joy he finds in bringing his characters to life on the silver screen.
