When fans or even passersby think of Jackie Chan (成龍), they immediately associate him with his iconic martial arts movies. Many of us see him as a legendary entertainer growing up, but one also can’t help but wonder, just how rich is he? For your information, Jackie’s substantial net worth has actually placed him among one of the richest Asian actors in the world.

According to Celebrity Net Worth, the movie star has a net worth of USD400 million (RM1.87 billion). The 70-year-old actor’s rise to stardom was a roller coaster, beginning as a stuntman in Bruce Lee’s films “Fist of Fury” (1972) and “Enter the Dragon” (1973), which led to his first starring role in “Little Tiger of Canton” (1973). His breakthrough came with “The Snake in the Eagle’s Shadow” (1978), where he showcased his comedic skills.

After starring in “Rush Hour” (1998) with Chris Tucker, he became a household name, with the film earning USD$130 million (RM609,895,000) in the United States alone. “Rush Hour 3” grossed USD$255 million (RM1.19 billion), leading him to create JCE Movies Limited. The “Rush Hour” franchise grossed USD$845 million (RM3.96 billion) globally. By 2018, his movies grossed USD$1.84 billion (RM8.6 billion) in the US and Canada, adjusted to USD$2.44 billion (RM11.4 billion). The actor’s projects have generated over USD$5 billion (RM23.4 billion) worldwide.

However, despite being one of the richest actors in Hong Kong, the legendary star did not allocate any of his money to his two children. He has a strained relationship with his two biological children, especially his daughter, Etta Ng, whom he had from his extramarital affair with Elaine Ng (吴绮莉). To this day, the superstar has been criticised for neglecting and abandoning her. Etta Ng has had a history embroiled in several scandals, such as being spotted queuing for free food in Canada or her refusing to spend Chinese New Year with her mother.

His son, Jaycee Chan (房祖名), has also faced legal troubles, notably a 2014 drug arrest in Beijing, where he provided a venue for others to use drugs. Jackie once shared with Channel NewsAsia about his decision not to pass down his fortune to his son saying, “If he is capable, he can make his own money. If he is not, then he will be wasting my money.” He also expressed his intention to donate all of his wealth to charity.

Despite his turbulent personal life, Jackie Chan remains a legendary figure in the acting industry, known for his money-making prowess. Building his empire in Hong Kong, known as the “Fragrant Harbour,” where the rich and powerful reside, his influence is undeniable. With his upcoming film “A Legend” hitting theatres on 12th July, fans old and new will undoubtedly contribute to enriching his net worth this year and beyond.
