Hollywood makes
Speed - which I love, and which is considered a classic. Jackie sees it, says I like that, I'll use it, but no blue screens. We'll use a Tanker, not a bus. It will be on fire and we will do it for real.
We will transfer people in and out of the cabin while in motion, and at the end I will jump off a humongous high bridge on a rope. I'll just tag it on to the end of this film we are already making.
If you have seen the original - it has all the usual post-credit scenes of alternate takes of the stunts where sometimes Jackie appears to injure himself. And there are scenes of setting up the jump, and of his crew running in to check his well-being when he lands after the jump.
But for true daring, just HOW? did he get away with running nude through the streets of Istanbul?
You can bet all the people on screen are crew and extras.
He's renowned for Martial arts, but his creative imagination is second to none. the 'creating a dress from a hanging cloth' scene - is sheer genius.
