Marvel is taking a bold step to enhance the action scenes in its movies by hiring Jackie Chan’s stunt team, known for its extensive experience in fight choreography. This team, founded in 1976, has worked in the film industry for nearly five decades, but rarely gets involved in Hollywood productions that are not directly related to Jackie Chan. However, they have already collaborated with Marvel on the film Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings, which was well received for its memorable action choreography.
Is Jackie Chan in Marvel!? Somehow
The next installment of the MCU, titled Brand New Day, will see Destin Daniel Cretton, the director of Shang-Chi, take the helm. This change in direction could introduce a unique blend of influences in the film’s action style. With a Peter Parker starting a new life, it is speculated that there could be a greater focus on kung-fu and hand-to-hand combat, which would notably change the perception of the character’s fighting style.
During the recent Locarno Film Festival, Jackie Chan revealed that his team was working on the set of Brand New Day in London, where he had the opportunity to observe the rehearsals and noticed the director’s excitement upon seeing him. This collaboration, along with the change in direction, could take the MCU’s fight scenes to a new level, especially since some previous films have been criticized for promoting soft and confusing combat sequences.
Con el legado de acción de Chan y la visión fresca de Cretton, Brand New Day tiene el potencial de redefinir las escenas de acción en las películas de Spider-Man, haciéndolas más memorables y electrizantes. A medida que Peter Parker explora su nueva vida, los fanáticos pueden esperar ver un estilo de lucha que combina elementos clásicos de superhéroes con técnicas de artes marciales, prometiendo una experiencia renovada en el universo cinematográfico de Marvel.
