The legendary actor Jackie Chan will spend time in Kaskelen, Almaty region, while working on his new film. Preparations for the fourth installment of the Armour of God franchise are already underway at a brand-new production site. Local residents will soon have the chance to see a true Hollywood star in their neighborhood.
The actor is scheduled to arrive later but will reside within the local area. Every effort is being made to ensure a comfortable working environment for the large production crew.
Investors have allocated $50 million for the entire project. These funds will be spent entirely within Kazakhstan on equipment, facilities, salaries, and catering. The investment will directly benefit local specialists and businesses.
As experts note, this project provides a significant boost to the development of the national film industry.
The Armour of God franchise began in 1986 with the eponymous action film directed by Jackie Chan himself. It is a cult series for enthusiasts of Jackie Chan and classic Hong Kong action cinema, often described as the Asian version of Indiana Jones.
