Jackie Chan fights his way out of a tight corner in The Foreigner clip

Even at 63, Jackie Chan can still kick ass.
In the exclusive clip above from upcoming thriller The Foreigner, Chan stars as Quan, a father hunting down the terrorists who carried out the bombing that killed his daughter (the Harry Potter franchise’s Katie Leung). Here, a group of men hoping to keep him quiet have found him first, but he makes a brutal escape, taking them down one by one until he crashes through a window.
It’s one of several fight scenes in which Chan says he tried to capture his character’s (and his own) age. “I play the owner of a restaurant in the film, who has spent many years not moving around,” he told EW. “So my fighting style in this has to be believable.”
The Foreigner, also starring Pierce Brosnan, hits theaters Oct. 13.
Never Say Die
I got nothing on Never Say Die but it beat out both Jackie’s The Foreigner and Donnie’s Chasing the Dragon (and Orlando’s S.M.A.R.T. Chase, which we do care about because Orlando is cool and rocks Feiyues) for the Moon Fest movie rush, so I guess I should check it out.
China Box Office: Martial Arts Comedy Opens to $46M, Topping Jackie Chan’s ‘The Foreigner’
2:46 AM PDT 10/2/2017 by Patrick Brzeski
‘The Foreigner’
Local comedy ‘Never Say Die’ outperformed Chan’s STX-backed action thriller, which earned $21.9 million on Saturday and Sunday.
Martial arts comedy Never Say Die came out swinging at the Chinese box office over the weekend, opening with $46.2 million on Saturday and Sunday.
The slapstick hit relegated Jackie Chan to a rare second-place finish, as his STX-produced action thriller The Foreigner opened with $21.9 million over the same two days.
Sunday was the start of one of China’s so-called “Golden Weeks,” a lucky succession of national holidays that results in most Chinese employees getting a full seven days off work. In recent years, this reprieve has translated into brisk business at Chinese multiplexes. In response, Chinese regulators have taken to blocking Hollywood movie openings during the holiday, putting the focus on Chinese culture while giving local studios a boost.
Never Say Die was produced by Beijing theater group Mahua Fun Age, the creative force behind last year’s comedy smash Goodbye Mr. Loser ($226 million). Never Say Die tells the story of a boxer and a journalist who mysteriously swap bodies after they are zapped by electricity, sending the duo spinning through a series of slapstick misadventures. The film is an adaptation of a hit Mahua stage comedy of the same name. Directed by Song Yang and Zhang Chiyu (the director pair behind the play), the film stars Ai Lun and Ma Li, two of the leads from Mr. Loser.
Directed by Martin Campbell and co-starring Pierce Brosnan, The Foreigner finds Chan in “serious Jackie Chan” mode, playing a humble London businessman whose mysterious past erupts in a revenge-fuelled vendetta when his teenage daughter dies in a terrorist attack. The English-language film earned just shy of $2 million on Imax screens over the weekend. Respectable word of mouth suggests the movie will hold onto second place throughout the week. A U.K.-China co-production, The Foreigner is set to open in North America on Oct. 13.
Chasing the Dragon, a slick martial arts drama starring Hong Kong favorites Donnie Yen and Andy Lau, landed in third place with $14.2 million. It was followed by Sky Hunter, a patriotic air force action flick directed by and starring Li Chen, which earned $13 million. Fan Bingbing, Li’s real-life fiance, co-stars as the romantic lead.
Although Hollywood movies are blocked from opening over National Day, one other familiar Western face did pop up on Chinese screens over the weekend. S.M.A.R.T. Chase, a Chinese road race thriller produced by Shanghai-based Bliss Media and starring Orlando Bloom, also debuted Saturday. The film hit the track with a sputter, however, taking just $1.5 million for the frame.
From being ‘topped’ to ‘kicking butt’

Box Office: Jackie Chan’s ‘The Foreigner’ Kicks Butt In China, ‘Flatliners’ Flatlines
Scott Mendelson , CONTRIBUTOR I cover the film industry.
Opinions expressed by Forbes Contributors are their own.

Jackie Chan and Pierce Brosnan in ‘The Foreigner’
First, a digression over in China, where Jackie Chan and Pierce Brosnan’s The Foreigner scored $11.4 million on its opening day in China on Saturday, before earning around $8.5m on Sunday for a $19.9m two-day total, or $21.1m with online ticketing fees. The Martin Campbell action thriller, about a former government agent who puts his skills back to work to avenge the death of his daughter, is one of a few big releases in advance of National Day.
The top movie was actually a Chinese comedy titled Never Say Die, which earned $20.1 million on Friday. But since The Foreigner is the first live-action Jackie Chan movie in seven years to get a major North American theatrical release (STX Entertainment opens it here on Oct. 13), I am beyond curious as to whether this is his first big (recent) Chinese hit to also cross over into American cinemas as well. With a $35m budget, it doesn’t really have to.
The $11.4 million opening day (not counting online fees) is lower than the $18.7 million opening day of Dragon Blade, but it’s worth noting that Kung Fu Yoga earned $39m in its first two days before exploding for what would be a $254m Chinese total earlier this year. The Martin Campbell-directed thriller, which I haven’t yet seen, is (presumably) less of a family-friendly crowdpleaser compared to Kung Fu Yoga or even the Jackie Chan/Johnny Knoxville action comedy Skip Trace which earned $133m in China last year.
But, again, those films had limited domestic theatrical releases and made pennies in theaters while testing their fates in the VOD markets. We’ll see if a post-Karate Kid absence has made the heart grow fonder.
The only “big” domestic opener this weekend aside from American Made was Flatliners, which snuck into theaters sans pre-release reviews or even Thursday night advance screenings. Yeah, I’m wondering if the whole “no Thursday previews” thing is a new way to hold off a terrible Rotten Tomatoes score too, but we’ll see how that goes. As of this morning, the ill-advised and allegedly quite flat Flatliners remake had a 0/35 score with an average critic ranking of 3.5/10.
The Niels Arden Oplev-directed picture is a remake of a 1990 Joel Schumacher movie that is famous for both a pretty great premise and a white-hot cast (Keifer Sutherland, Julia Roberts, Kevin Bacon, Oliver Platt, William Baldwin). This remake actually has both, with the same “med students kill themselves to bring themselves back to life and tell of the afterlife” premise and a pretty decent cast in Ellen Page, Diego Luna, Nina Dobrev, James Norton and Kiersey Clemons.
But star power isn’t what it used to be and the whole “remake an old movie because it’s now IP” thing isn’t nearly as sure of a bet as Hollywood thinks. The new film didn’t look any bigger or more outlandish than the original, and the original is available to rent on Amazon Prime for $3 right now. So, anyway, sans good reviews or any real buzz, the film grossed $6.7 million over the weekend, an admittedly strong weekend 3x multiplier.
Sony is only on the hook for around 75% of the film’s $19m budget, but this is still not a good look for the studio. Once again, one cannot survive on Spider-Man alone, so fingers crossed for Only the Brave, Denzel Washington’s Roman J. Israel Esq, The Star and Jumanji.
There were two blink-and-you-miss-them newbies this weekend as well. Newbie distributor Novus opened Til Death Do Us Part in 550 theaters this weekend. The Chris Stokes (You Got Served) thriller, starring Jessica Vanessa DeLeon, Taye Diggs and Stephen Bishop, is a loose variation on Julia Roberts’ Sleeping with the Enemy.
Had it done better this weekend, I could have opined about the value of the rip-off versus the remake. It earned $1.533 million for the weekend, again with an oddly strong 3.3x weekend multiplier. Still, there is a case to be made that, relatively speaking, the remake was no more successful than the loose rip-off, with the difference being that folks might actually discover Til Death Do Us Part in the years to come while most folks will opt for the original Flatliners.
Pureflix’s faith-based film A Question of Faith opened in 661 theaters and grossed $1 million for the weekend.
Seen!
I saw the screener last night but am under embargo until Friday, when I’ll drop my review. I will say this - best Jackie film in years.
Also those netizens that trolled this film because of racism or whatev that was based on the trailer were so wack. The film explains this very intelligently and anyone who knows about Asian history will see that it’s totally valid. Just goes to show you can’t judge a book by its cover or a film by its trailer.

Jackie Chan hypes up Rush Hour 4, threatens to kill off Chris Tucker to make it happen
BY SHANGHAIIST IN NEWS ON OCT 11, 2017 8:30 PM
It’s been ten years since the last Rush Hour movie opened in theaters to the universal disgust of critics but relative enthusiasm from moviegoers, making $258 million at the box office. Now, Jackie Chan is looking to get the band back together for a sequel.
The 63-year-old actor and self-defense instructor tried to stir up some hype for Rush Hour 4 during an appearance yesterday on the Today Show to promote his latest martial arts flick, The Foreigner. During that broadcast, and another appearance following it on Live with Kelly and Ryan, Chan repeatedly tried to bully his former co-star Chris Tucker into signing onto a sequel, threatening that if he does not, the new movie will open with his funeral.
“If you’re not going to do it, the beginning of the movie: funeral, he died,” Chan said. “His son take over.”
Chan first teased Rush Hour 4 in a radio interview last Thursday, saying that he had already agreed to a script and was just waiting for his partner-in-crime-fighting to sign on as well.
“For the last seven years we’ve been turning down the script, turning down the script… yesterday we just agreed. Probably end of this month they’ll have a second draft. Next year, they’ll probably start, I hope – if Chris Tucker agrees,” Chan said.
In the first Rush Hour film, Chan played a dedicated Hong Kong detective who is teamed up with a loud, over-the-top LAPD detective, played by Tucker, and tasked with rescuing the Chinese consul’s kidnapped daughter. The premise made for a bearable action-comedy that was even somewhat enjoyable at points. However, not so much for the sequels, which stretched the premise thin and repeated gags and jokes from the first movie with limited success. There is likely little hope that a fourth movie would help to redeem the series.
A decade ago, Chan also blamed his buddy Tucker with delaying Rush Hour 3, which took six long years to come out. Since the turn of the century, Tucker has only acted in four movies: Rush Hour 2, Rush Hour 3, Silver Linings Playbook and Billy Lynn’s Long Halftime Walk.

China Box Office: ‘Never Say Die’ Hurtles Past $200M
9:08 PM PDT 10/8/2017 by Patrick Brzeski
‘Never Say Die’
STX Entertainment’s Jackie Chan thriller ‘The Foreigner’ came in third place in its second weekend, with its total climbing to $67 million.
Local comedy Never Say Die dominated China’s Golden Week autumn holiday period this year.
The body-swapping comedy from Mahua Funage, a Beijing theater troupe turned box-office powerhouse, earned $65.3 million in its second weekend, taking its nine-day total to a massive $220 million. The blockbuster pulled in around $25 or more every day of the weeklong holiday, nearly tripling the individual totals of the various local titles that trailed it.
The film will easily surpass Goodbye Mr. Loser, Mahua’s debut release, which wildly surpassed expectations by earning $226 million in 2015.
Jackie Chan’s gritty English-language thriller The Foreigner slipped to third place in its second weekend, earning $15.2 million behind Hong Kong martial arts drama Chasing the Dragon with $17 million. A U.K.-China co-production, backed by STX Entertainment, The Foreigner has earned $67 million after nine days. That’s well below Chan’s recent martial arts action comedies, such as Kung Fu Yoga ($254.5 million) and Railroad Tigers ($101.5 million), but it’s less surprising given that the foreign-themed thriller sits far outside Chan’s usual family-fun wheelhouse.
Although it’s nudged ahead in daily earnings recently, Chasing the Dragon, which stars Donnie Yen and Andy Lau, is still a step behind The Foreigner for the full holiday period, with its nine-day total sitting at $59.7 million as of Monday.
Musical movie City of Rock, directed by and starring Chengpeng Dong (Jian Bing Man, $186 million in 2015), added $12 million in its second weekend. After 10 days, it has earned $38.7 million.
Fan Bingbing’s patriotic air force movie Sky Hunters is the fifth-place finisher for the holiday, having earned $10.6 million in its second frame and $37.8 million overall.
STX Entertainment will be back in the China market later this week, with the studio’s local partner Huayi Brothers set to release The Space Between Us on Friday.

‘The Foreigner’ Box Office: Jackie Chan Actioner Tops $100M Worldwide
Scott Mendelson , CONTRIBUTOR
I cover the film industry.

STX Entertainment
‘The Foreigner’
With the all-important caveat that budgets matter, The Foreigner may prove to be an important little B-movie potboiler. The $35 million action drama, starring Jackie Chan as a grief-stricken avenger and Pierce Brosnan as the government bureaucrat who becomes an incidental target, earned $12.84m this weekend. That’s not an insane figure, heck it’s less than the $15m that American Assassin snagged last month or the $14m that John Wick opened with three years ago. But the STX Entertainment release is both a much-needed win for the upstart distributor that has suffered in the Netflix-and-Chill era and a prime example of an American/Chinese two-hander that will be a hit on both shores.
Again, that’s as much to do with the budget as anything else, but The Foreigner is already a hit. The Martin Campbell-directed film has already earned $78 million from China, and STX and friends expect an $88m overseas cume by today, meaning that the picture is right at $100m worldwide, or almost triple the production budget. Unlike Matt Damon’s The Great Wall which earned $334m worldwide on a $150m budget after scoring $171m in China but underperforming essentially everywhere else, and the $165m Warcraft which earned $220m in China after striking hot and fast with fans of the game and flopped everywhere else, this one isn’t so expensive that it needs to be a blockbuster on both coasts.
Huayi Brothers Pictures and Wanda Pictures’ The Foreigner opened in China two weeks ago to decent results, holding its own against the blockbuster comedy Never Say Die. And yeah, since this is a grim, R-rated action drama, it was never going to do Kung Fu Yoga or Skip Trace business in China. This is closer to A Walk Among the Tombstones than Taken. The film snagged a decent $5,105 per-location average in 2,515 theaters as well as a solid 2.7x weekend multiplier (it went up 3% on Saturday) and an A- from Cinemascore. It played 59% male with (to quote STX’s press release) Asian audiences significantly overdelivering. “Imagine that…,” he said with a droll smile. Oh, and it earned 8.4/10 from Mao Yan, which is a leading Chinese audience metric.
Where it will go from here is an open question. It may leg it to $35 million+, which would make it Jackie Chan’s second-biggest import, even adjusted for inflation, behind Rumble in the Bronx ($32m in 1996, $65m adjusted). Or maybe it’ll burn out once the fans get their fill. Obviously, the extent to which this one is an American success depends on if you view it as an American Jackie Chan movie like Shangai Noon or The Tuxedo (Rush Hour and The Karate Kid are on different planets) or an import like Super Cop or Operation Condor. But the key is that this American-Chinese co-production was cheap enough that it didn’t need to break records in either territory to break out. But this is a promising performance for Chan’s first wide theatrical release in over seven years. And unlike Edge of Darkness (Mel Gibson’s similar comeback vehicle, courtesy of Martin Campbell, after nearly a decade away), it didn’t cost $80m.
I wouldn’t have called this a little B-movie potboiler. Critics always look down on Jackie and action film. :mad:

The Jackie Chan Vs. Tom Cruise Box Office Battle Ended In A Draw
Scott Mendelson , CONTRIBUTOR
I cover the film industry.
Opinions expressed by Forbes Contributors are their own.
STX Entertainment
‘The Foreigner’
Think of this as an excuse to do a “box office catch-up” on two smaller-scale action dramas from the last six weeks. As I discussed back in late September, there was a skewed irony in Tom Cruise’s American Made opening in North America on the same day that Jackie Chan’s The Foreigner opened in China. Both films opened outside of North America well ahead of their North American debuts, and both films made well more than half of their money overseas. And in the battle of old-school movie stars headlining old-school star vehicles, well, it was essentially a tie.
To wit, American Made has thus far earned $50.7 million in North America, which is about equal to the film’s $50m production budget. That’s not a great figure, but it is a promising one for what was the first Tom Cruise starring vehicle in nearly a decade that wasn’t a franchise-friendly and/or hard fantasy action title. The Doug Liman dramedy, where most of the action is confined to ariel escapades (as opposed to outright action violence), featured Tom Cruise as “just a guy,” which is a big change of pace over the last decade.
Be it causation or correlation, the Cruise output since that whole “couch jumping” scandal in the summer of 2005 have been somewhat engineered to sell the idea that Tom Cruise is a still a bankable movie star. Yes, Edge of Tomorrow and the last two Mission: Impossible movies were excellent, and I liked Valkyrie, Knight and Day, Jack Reacher and Oblivion. But what we lost as Cruise transitioned from “movie star who occasionally does action” to full-on action star (a transition that, to be fair, began with John Woo’s Mission: Impossible II in 2000), was the guy who could power a critically-acclaimed hit movie without running, gunning or copious explosions.
To the extent that American Made is arguably less of a conventional action movie than Valkyrie, it marked his first non-actioner starring vehicle (Rock of Ages was a supporting turn) Lions for Lambs back in late 2007. And the film, distributed in most of the world by Universal/Comcast Corp., earned $132.8 million worldwide. That’s not too far off from the 2015 caper Focus, which offered Will Smith in a refreshingly adult-skewing (his first R-rated movie since Bad Boys II in 2003) romantic thriller. That Warner Bros. release earned $53m domestic and $159m worldwide on a $50m budget.
American Made wasn’t a blow out hit, but I’m hopeful that the halfway decent box office and even better critical notices will encourage Cruise to make more of its ilk alongside Mission: Impossible sequels. Because, all due respect, the world doesn’t really need (or want) Edge of Tomorrow 2. They don’t need Top Gun 2 either, but that ship has sailed. Furthermore, Joseph Kosinski’s Only the Brave was so good that I’ll give that one something resembling the benefit of the doubt.
That brings us to STX Entertainment’s The Foreigner. That too was something of a homecoming for its top-billed star. While it was a Chinese/American co-production, it was also the first live-action Jackie Chan movie to get a wide theatrical release in North America since Sony’s The Karate Kid remake in June of 2010. And it was marketed in North America as Chan’s big comeback since it stands to reason that most general audiences haven’t seen the huge hits he’s been knocking out in China for the last few years.
Helmed by Martin Campbell, The Foreigner is less of a boisterous crowdpleaser than (for example) Skip Trace or Kung Fu Yoga. The grim and violent R-rated political thriller was something of a change-of-pace for the action star (less so for co-star Pierce Brosnan), but it still made pretty solid money. The film earned $33 million domestic, which is just above the (unadjusted) $32m domestic cume of Rumble in the Bronx back in 1996, making it Chan’s biggest grosser for a live-action film that wasn’t explicitly intended for Hollywood consumption.
And at $133 million worldwide, it earned 3.8x its $35m production budget and stands above the global grosses of Shanghai Noon, Shanghai Knights and The Tuxedo. Heck, it outgrossed, worldwide, the likes of The Forbidden Kingdom ($128m in 2008) and Dragon Blade ($122m in 2015). Once it earns $1m more, it’ll be past the $134m gross of the Chan/Johnny Knoxville romp Skiptrace from last year. Thanks to halfway decent grosses outside of China, the film will have outgrossed every Jackie Chan movie that isn’t a Kung Fu Panda movie, a Rush Hour film, The Karate Kid ($359 million) and Kung Fu Yoga ($254m).
So on one hand, the film was cheap enough that it only needed to do “relatively well” in China ($81 million) to be profitable. That is in sharp contrast to American Made, which was relying on overseas grosses (where Cruise is arguably a bigger draw) than on box office might in his home country. Conversely, it was due to halfway decent North American numbers that the theoretically less commercial The Foreigner found itself on an equal global footing with pure escapism like SkipTrace or even Dragon Blade.
But while obviously Cruise’s dramedy cost more and thus was less profitable than Chan’s thriller, I am amused that both films will essentially make the same amount in terms of raw global box office. The battle between American Made and The Foreigner, both good movies featuring fine performances from their leading men, ended in a relative tie. And the lesson, to the extent that there needs to be a lesson, is that North American box office still matters. American Made needed more in America to be a super hit, while The Foreigner was quite successful because it didn’t just rely on China.
Although that it only really needed its home turf is an entirely different lesson.

Wind River
Wind River 2017 (American neo-Western murder mystery) is an excellent thriller but quite serious. The scenes have stayed with me long after I watched it.
"Storyline
WIND RIVER is a chilling thriller that follows a rookie FBI agent (Elizabeth Olsen) who teams up with a local game tracker with deep community ties and a haunted past (Jeremy Renner) to investigate the murder of a local girl on a remote Native American Reservation in the hopes of solving her mysterious death"
7.8 on IMDB and I’d give it 5 stars Lots of glowing reviews.
Jumanji
"
so fingers crossed for Only the Brave, Denzel Washington’s Roman J. Israel Esq, The Star and Jumanji."
Jumanji has a strong gratuitous transgender male gay fantasy in it. It gets graphic- I took my 3D glasses off and stared at my popcorn for a while trying to imagine a world without Jack Black. It would have been nice if the advertising had some kind of warning in it. I decided to see it as I had never seen a 3D film before. Big Mistake.
Thanks Hollywood , I’m sure the .1 to .3 percent demographic sure appreciates your SJW agenda. I sure didn’t - it was like getting sucker punched. NOT SUITABLE FOR THE WHOLE FAMILY - and certainly not kids.
Nowhere do I see any mention of this content in any review or description. I would suspect everyone is afraid of being labeled “phobic”. Anyway it sure isn’t a selling point, I wouldn’t mention it either if I wanted a good box office.
Hollywood is really messed up.
…
Afterwards I realized in the Jumanji world of the film,there were seven guys and one girl and I would rate her as a 7 or 8 and modestly dressed. I think Dwayne didn’t want any competition for his muscles. lol
The Foreigner
The foreigner is a real treat. Jackie still has it and he still fights Jackie style. I saw it clean unperturbed by any advertising because I don’t watch TV or read MSN news… as in ZERO.
As Gene writes, the terrorists were all white. That is not really a twist. The Globalists who own Hollywood are in the business of whitewashing Islam and Islamic Jihad. Even though there have been hundreds or even thousands of Islamic Jihadist attacks of all kinds (including rape, individual violence and mass murder) in the last year in Europe we all know that Islamic Terror and Islamic Jihad has nothing to do with Islam. :rolleyes:
It’s pretty unrealistic that you would get such a number of people in Ireland today so fiercely dedicated to violence for a cause that is essentially historical. But Hollywood needed bad guys and according to the Hollywood agenda the only safe group to make as “bad guys” are whites. Or maybe more correctly, in leftist Hollywood with the Marxist method of attacking the social order, the enemy always has to “us” whoever “us” is. That’s why there were no Nazis in Dunkirk ,“we” are always the ones who are wrong.
In fact the conventional non-MSN wisdom is that it’s gone far beyond crime, aggression and terror, Europe is dead, finished by a combination of Globalist dictatorship and Islamification. State fascism on one side and Islamic fascism on the other. Germany has done it again. Merkel has created a Fourth Reich , put Europe under the yoke and used Islamic Migrants as her stormtroopers. This time nothing can save Europe, not even America. The Globalists think they can win, but the dog they have unleashed to achieve power will probably eat them. In any case, the European people will lose. The MSN battery cell sleepers have a rude awakening coming. But the whole point of the whitewash is that by the time they awake it’s too late. If there is any movie to be made it’s one in the background of the reality of the Death of Europe. Why not examine the monsters that exist rather than the ones that don’t?
I wouldn’t have seen The Foreigner if I knew it was about “terrorism” because the Hollywood absurdism about the subject is beyond sickening in it’s disinformation intent. But this was Jackie, so it was worth it. It’s a vehicle for him.
..
“With Brexit looming, The Foreigner may be spot on to recall Irelands rebellious nature.”
Brexit “looming”? So the UK people having voted for their freedom from the European Union Dictatorship is something “looming”. Sounds like a Globalist agenda there equating Brexit with terrorism.
Ireland today is firmly under the control of Cultural Marxist Globalists and their propaganda machine. There is no crack in that machine. You will be hard pressed to find anything “rebellious” in the country today. Ireland is firmly under the yoke of the Globalist Warlords - maybe it’s more SJW-Marxist ludicrous than California, just give a listen to Dave Cullen from Computing Forever. But who knows? Maybe the Globalists are worried about the Irish regaining their sanity.
