成龙获奥斯卡终身成就奖

Veteran Chinese actor Jackie Chan is going to receive a lifetime achievement Oscar.

 

中国老牌演员成龙将获奥斯卡终身成就奖。
 

 

The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences has announced that the 62-year-old will join documentary maker¹ Frederick Wiseman, British film editor Anne V. Coates and casting director Lynn Stalmaster as recipients² of its 2016 Governors Awards.

 

Each will get an honorary Oscar statuette recognizing their lifetime contribution to film at a gala in Los Angeles in November.

 

Chan made his movie debut³ at the age of 8, and has acted, written and directed over 30 martial⁴ arts films.

 

He has yet to win an Oscar.

 

Chan himself is in Taipei as part of the filming for his latest effort called "Bleeding Steel," which is a sci-fi/action film.

 

In it, Chan plays a special force agent who has to protect a woman from a criminal organization.

 

Jackie Chan admits the role has forced him out of his comfort zone.

 

"Of course I am not very confident with science-fiction. I don't know much about it. Therefore I only make Jackie Chan-style movies. This is a sci-fi movie, and at the same time it's not a sci-fi movie. So this gives me more confidence. And the character is also a challenge. In the past few years, people may have noticed that I tried hard to change my image. I hope people know that I am not only an action movie actor. I am an actor."
