If you had one opportunity to ask comedy king Stephen Chow any question, what would it be? For some, it seems they would like to know what Stephen's sex life is like, and what he thought of some of his late actor friends. In multiple Instagram Story posts yesterday (April 14), the 60-year-old filmmaker replied to questions that were shot.
ACTOR Jackie Chan (

“To be able to work on each acting role diligently and give your best, while at the same time present your own unique acting style, is easier said than done, ” Chan, 66, told reporters recently.
Both Chan and Ng were veterans in the Hong Kong film industry but took on roles in different genres, with Chan’s forte being martial arts films and Ng’s being comedy.
The only time the two had worked together was in the 1999 movie King of Comedy, which was directed by Stephen Chow.
