fighting
HONG KONG - Jet Li is urging audiences to keep expectations low for
his eagerly anticipated fight scenes with Jackie Chan in an
upcoming film.

He says it's not that kind of movie and they're both getting too
old.
"When Jackie Chan and I first wanted to work together 15 years ago,
our passion was at its peak. ... Our desire to succeed was very
strong," the 44-year-old Li told The Associated Press. "Now we joke
that when we watch the 'The Forbidden Kingdom' our combined age is
100." (Chan is 53.)
The martial arts stars come to blows in "The Forbidden Kingdom,"
about an American teenager's fantasy journey to ancient China to
rescue a mythological Monkey King, but Li warns:
"How intense are the battle scenes? My mentality is to not have
high expectations. "
The film is tentatively scheduled for U.S. release next
spring.
