Jackie Chan will receive the Pardo alla Carriera on August 6 during the Locarno Film Festival. The oeuvre award is a crowning achievement for his long career in the international film world, the organization behind the award announced on Tuesday.

As a director, producer, actor, screenwriter, choreographer, singer, athlete and daredevil stuntman, Jackie Chan is both a key figure in contemporary Asian cinema and someone who has rewritten the rules of Hollywood, says artistic director Giona A. Nazzaro about the award.

The 71-year-old Hong Kong actor will not only come to the Swiss festival for the award ceremony, but will also answer questions from the audience on August 10.

With the award, Chan joins previous winners such as Francesco Rosi, Claudia Cardinale, Harry Belafonte and Johnnie To. The film festival starts on August 6 and lasts eleven days.

Chan is best known for his appearances in Asian martial arts and action films such as Zui quan (Drunken Master) and Jing cha gu shi (New Police Story), and in Hollywood blockbusters such as Rush Hour, Kung Fu Panda and a remake of The Karate Kid.
