Jackie Chan and Jet Li in a movie together? How come no one thought of this before?

The Forbidden Kingdom, trailer in previous post, features the aforementioned martial arts, movie stars and the guy who put together the fight scenes from the Matrix, so it looks like it’ll be a pretty cool action flick. Mixing Jackie Chan’s style of kung fu comedy with Jet Li’s serious skills should yield some interesting results.  I’m excited.  The story is something about a kid from our time looking for pirated DVDs, getting sucked into the mystical Chinese past, and having to learn kung fu to free the Monkey King and save the world. Hm.

As I said, it looks like it’ll be a pretty cool action flick.

The Forbidden Kingdom comes out April 18th. Video game adaption to be announced.

Or not.
