Jackie Chan Launches TV Reality Show in China
Not content to dominate wacky Buddy Cop kung fu movies, Jackie Chan has now set his sights on conquering Reality TV. He’s launched his own Reality TV show, “The Disciple”, in China in cooperation with Beijing TV (BTV). How will the show work? The show will run from March to October, with 10 winners appearing in a movie to be produced by Chan, organizers said. The movie will be released before the 2008 Beijing Olympics, Chan said. Personally, I think they should have called it, “So You Want to Break Your Bones and Fall From Trees for Pennies a Day?” But that’s just me.
“Jackie says — Watch my show, biotch!”
