This morning, Variety tells me this: "Martial arts movie masters Jackie Chan and Jet Li will battle on the big screen for the first time in a new movie set to start filming in April. Acclaimed action choreographer Yuen Woo-Ping will guide the fight sequences".

I've heard this was brewing for quite awhile, as far back as when I was in Jackie's agents office years ago pitching, well, the very same idea. Anyhow. On paper, it's exciting, but I'm told it's a "family" film, which is kinda wack considering you want these two to beat the fuck out of each other. Anyway, I haven't seen Jackie's new one yet (cause its not out on DVD), and while Jackie for me the single most important filmmaker of my life, I hold very little against him. Hopefully this will kick ass.
