Jackie Chan Just Turned 70, But He Swears His White Hair Is for a Movie


Jackie Chan, who just celebrated his 70th birthday, assured fans he's healthy after a series of photos showing him with white hair raised concerns.

Jackie Chan, who just celebrated his 70th birthday, assured fans he’s in good health after some concerns were raised over a photo that showed him — well, looking like a 70-year-old man. The actor said each reminder of the milestone was a bit of a shock, but then he remembered something his longtime collaborator, Sammo Hung, once told him: “Being able to grow old is a fortunate thing.” Chan and Ralph Macchio are both returning to the franchise, with Chan reprising his role as Mr. Han from the 2010 remake (which starred a young Jaden Smith), and Macchio will, of course, be playing Daniel LaRusso, the karate champ he first played as a kid in the original movies and recently reprised as an adult for the Cobra Kai TV series.
