Fans can breathe a sigh of relief as legendary action star Jackie Chan is confirmed to be alive and well. Recent social media rumors falsely reported the 71-year-old actor’s passing, causing widespread concern. These baseless claims, often citing complications from past on-set injuries, have unfortunately become a recurring phenomenon for the beloved martial artist. Investigations into the origin of these hoaxes reveal that fabricated posts, particularly on platforms like X and Facebook, announced his supposed demise, stating that his family had confirmed the news. This misinformation understandably led to shock and frustration among fans worldwide. This isn’t the first time Jackie Chan has been the subject of such unfounded rumors; he himself addressed similar claims in 2015, expressing his surprise and reassuring the public of his well-being. Despite these distractions, Chan remains active, with recent releases like ‘The Shadow’s Edge’ (2025), ‘The Legend’ (2024), and ‘Ride On’ (2023). Upcoming projects reportedly include ‘New Police Story 2’, ‘Project P’, ‘Five Against a Bullet’, and potentially ‘Rush Hour 4’, proving his enduring presence in the film industry.
