I never wanted to be the next Bruce Lee. I just wanted to be the first Jackie Chan.

When I got depressed, I watched Bruce Lee movies. I learned everything from Bruce Lee.

When I was young I trained a lot. I trained my mind, I trained my eyes, trained my thinking, how to help people. And it trained me how to deal with pressure.

I will make action movies, I think, for a few more years, another five years.

My dream is to continue filming until my body tells me to stop.

Even during the promotion I told people that I didn't like Rush Hour. The jokes I didn't understand and the fighting, compared to my Hong Kong films was terrible. A lot of people didn't like it. But mostly people did like it, they really liked it. Rush Hour really brought me to the American family audience.

In my view, Zhang Lanxin is one of our best female martial artists, and I can't rate her highly enough.
