Jackie Chan in ‘Around the World in 80 Days’

Jackie Chan and director Frank Coraci smile at a press conference in Germany for the 2004 picture Around the World in 80 Days. Jackie Chan played the role of Passepartout, the valet and sidekick for fictional adventurer Phileas Fogg (played by Steve Coogan, not pictured). The movie was based on Jules Verne's 1873 novel of the same name. Jackie Chan was born in 1954, so he turned 50 the year this photo was taken.
