If ever there were an action movie star who deserved their own museum, surely it would be Jackie Chan. If you've never witnessed the mind-blowing spectacle of his stunts and fight scenes, you don't know Jackie.
My vote is to name it the The Honourable Jackie Chan Kung Fuseum.
Jackie Chan's Web site says construction has begun on a museum for the action movie star in the Chinese financial capital Shanghai.A statement published Friday says the 54-year-old attended a ceremony marking the start of work earlier this week.
The museum will house props and costumes from Chan's movies, photos and other memorabilia, the Web site said. Construction is scheduled to finish in October 2009.

P.S. That's another of me with Jackie Chan on the set of Twins Effect in Hong Kong. Jackie has always been a huge inspiration to me and a Jackie Chan "Fuseum" would be a fitting tribute.

Jackie Chan would be the star that impress most people with his flashy move in and out of the movie.Meeting him was the best moment ever when I'm in Hong Kong. Humorous guy and friendly. Looking forward to visit his museum in when it is completed.

Here is a photo of Jackie Chan taken on June 27, 2008 at Insadong Korea. Despite everyone(including me) going crazy shooting him with cameras/cell phones, he was smiling, waving and shaking hands. It was an unusal moment to see him there.

In October of 2007, I was hired as one of the photographers to cover the grand opening of the Jackie Chan Coffee and Tea store in Singapore. I spent a few hours with Jackie, taking many pictures of him with the guests and various VIP's that graced the event. He is very down to earth and easy to talk to.
This picture here is Jackie behind the counter serving up the first cup of his coffee to one of the guests.
