Adjust font size:

A worldwide TV competition to select successors to action superstar Jackie Chan will be launched at the Shangri-La Hotel in Beijing on Saturday.

Jackie Chan will fly to Beijing to attend the launch from the United States, where he is currently shooting Rush Hour 3 in Hollywood. The star will perform the theme song The Dream of Dragon to encourage all the contestants.

Many A-list guest stars, including Yuen Wah, Yuen Qiu, Stanley Tong, and Zhou Xun, will also attend the ceremony.

The TV show is jointly produced by Beijing TV, JCE Entertainment Ltd, China Film Group and Hong Kong-based Emperor Entertainment Group.

Applications for the show began on January 1. Anyone between the ages of 18 and 28 with an action performance background can apply to participate in this TV competition.

The final competition is scheduled to take place this October at the Great Wall and broadcast live on Beijing TV.

The 10 finalists are expected to receive professional training at Jackie Chan's JCE Entertainment Ltd. They will star as lead roles in several upcoming movies produced by Jackie Chan.

Outstanding selections are expected to be the successors of Jackie Chan.
