In 1982, Chan married Joan Lin, a Taiwanese actress. Their son, singer and actor Jaycee Chan, was born that same year. Chan’s extra-marital affair with Elaine Ng Yi-Lei produced a daughter by the name of Etta Ng Chok Lam, born on 18 January 1999. It turned into a scandal within the media. Although he reportedly gave Elaine 70,000 HK dollars each month for her living expenses and 600,000 HK dollars when she moved to Shanghai, the transactions were later claimed to be nonexistent by her lawyer. Despite regretting the results of the affair, Chan said he had “only committed a fault that many men in the world commit”.

In 1976, Jackie Chan started working with director Lo Wei. The director wanted to take advantage of Bruce Lee’s popularity and tried to make Jackie Chan the next Bruce Lee. However, Chan couldn’t replicate Lee’s fighting style, so the film New Fist of Fury was a failure. A major breakthrough came when Jackie was able to put his trademark comedic skills to use in the Snake in the Eagle’s Shadow. Director Yuen Woo-ping capitalised on the success of this film with the release of Drunken Master later that year. This proved to be one of Jackie Chan’s most iconic performances and it propelled the young to incredible levels of fame. Because the director was willing to give Chan complete freedom of his stunt choreography, the young actor was able to fully show off his impressive abilities.
