Fact Check: Is the Young Girl in the Viral Video Really Jackie Chan's Daughter?
A video featuring Jackie Chan was released on social media and received attention with a misleading title. In the clip, Chan is seen sitting and watching action scenes with an increasingly emotional young girl. This viral video is not an authentic moment between Jackie Chan and his real daughter. Instead, it's a scene from an adventure comedy movie called "Ride on."
A clip featuring Jackie Chan is being broadcast on social networks. The video, shared on Twitter with a misleading caption, shows Chan sitting and watching an action movie scene with a young girl, his eyes filling with tears as the video progresses. According to a poster with the handle @Tegadeyforyou, the video shows the veteran action star reminiscing about his illustrious career with his daughter. But that information later turned out to be false, and according to a community note, the clip is actually from a new adventure comedy film called Ride On, in which the girl plays Chan's daughter. It is said that this is an actor named Liu Hauchon.
What is Ride On?
Ride On, a Chinese action drama film written and directed by Larry Yang, tells the story of a stuntman named Lu who struggles to make ends meet as he can barely feed his prized stunt horse, Red Hair. Lou reluctantly enlists the help of her lawyer's daughter and boyfriend when she learns that her red rabbit may be auctioned off to pay off her debts. Unexpectedly, Lu's conflict with the Red Rabbit and debt collection took the internet by storm and became a media sensation overnight.
The film also features actresses Liu Hauchon and Guo Qilin, who are featured in the video.
The relationship between Jackie Chan and his (real) daughter Etta Ng Chukram
Etta Ng Chokram is Chan's biological daughter, the result of a relationship between the martial arts legend and Hong Kong actress Elaine Ng Eley. Unlike the on-screen girl, Chan's relationship with her real-life daughter is not amicable due to Eta N Chok Lam's sexuality. She came out as a lesbian in 2017
