Asia E! Online by Joanne Soh
Question:You once said that your dream is to die on stage. Now that you have a family and are almost 50 years old with a tremendious success story and you've had way too many injuries. Do you think that this dream of your's has changed?
Jackie's answer: To die on stage will be glorious to me. What I'm afraid of is that I may be like Christopher Reeves and become paralyzed. That will be hell. To be frank, each time I suffer an injury, the thought of quitting does come to mind as the stunts are too dangerous. I used to make movies for the sake of making money, but now things have changed. I don't see monetary gains as a motivation to make movies anymore. I'm the highest paid actor in Asia now. it would be nice, though, to take home a US $30 million paycheck, and truely be the World's #1 |
