Jackie Chan's new film, with an investment of 350 million yuan, is scheduled to be released in July 2024, kicking off the summer film season. The film Legend is currently highly anticipated because it is the second part of the film Myth (2005).
Special effects helped Jackie Chan go from 70 years old to 27 years old in the movie "Legend".

The trailer for Legend does not reflect much on the plot, but shows a modern character played by Zhang Yixing returning to the past to become a Han Dynasty general and a princess played by Guli Nazha having a beautiful love story. Images from about 1,000 years ago are introduced, showing magical and shimmering settings. However, many people think that too many special effects make Legend not as good as Mythology 20 years ago.

The 1954-born star - Jackie Chan - continued to play the main role, without using a stunt double during the 6 months of filming in Xinjiang, China. Artificial intelligence technology was used to help his face become that of a 27-year-old.
After a series of comedies that bombed the Chinese box office during the recent Lunar New Year, audiences were bored with realistic films. They were expecting a film with high-quality visual effects. And The Legend was released at the right time to meet this demand. This helped the film confidently earn good revenue when it was released in theaters after a series of Jackie Chan's disappointing films in the past 10 years.
Although the famous star has continued to work tirelessly with many film genres that have made him famous worldwide, age is still a big disadvantage for Jackie Chan. The films he has made recently have been lackluster and do not guarantee revenue. Therefore, it is hoped that with new special effects technology, the actor can look younger than 43 years old on screen to continue his artistic dream.
