Jackie Chan entered the Guinness World Records by performing more than 15 roles in a single film. Which famous picture was this?

Throughout his career, Jackie Chan has received many prestigious accolades, such as an honorary Oscar and Hong Kong Film Academy awards. At the same time, his contribution to the film industry also led to him setting two Guinness World Records at once.

In the film "Chinese Zodiac" (CZ12), which was released on big screens in 2012, Jackie Chan did almost all the work himself. Therefore, the actor's name was listed separately 15 times in the film's closing credits, and he was recognized as the "Most credits in one movie" and entered into the Guinness World Records.

At that time, the actor performed the following roles in the film:

wrote the script and directed;

played the main role;

produced and executive produced;

worked behind the camera as a cinematographer and production designer;

led the film crew and adjusted the lights;

performed stunts and coordinated the stunts;

composed the music and sang the film's theme song;

was responsible for props and even organized the catering for the creative team.

Chan's work on the film covered many processes both behind the scenes and on screen. In particular, he was personally responsible for the catering of the film crew. In addition, the actor also used his professional singing skills and sang a song in the film.

Over his many years of career, Chan also achieved a second Guinness World Record. He was recognized as the actor with the "Most stunts by a living actor." This title was awarded because the legendary actor has starred in more than 100 films and personally performed the most dangerous stunts on screen without any stunt doubles, risking his health.
