Jackie Chan and Jet Li in one movie? Cool!

I have always been a fan of kung fu movies. I like Jackie Chan and I love Jet Li. And it seems my appetite for such genre would all the more be sated because two of the world's greatest martial arts actors are gonna team up for a one big action movie.

Variety says that the two are going to star in a Lions Gate movie, The Forbidden Kingdom.

Lionsgate has boarded martial-arts actioner "The Forbidden Kingdom," which pairs Jackie Chan and Jet Li for the first time on the big screen.

Based on the Chinese legend of the monkey king, story revolves around an American teenager who discovers the king's legendary stick weapon in a pawn shop. Teen is transported back in time to ancient China, where he joins a crew of warriors fighting to free the imprisoned king.

Li is set to play two roles, that of the monkey king and the silent monk. Chan will pay the monk T'sa-Ho.

I can't wait to see this film in the theater. These two guys know how to kick ass and I sure don't wanna miss seeing that.
