help Project A FAQ
What is Jackie Chan trying to stop in Project A?
Chan plays Hong Kong marine sergeant Dragon Ma, whose unit is fighting pirates led by San-po. The mission becomes complicated by rivalry with the police and by Fei, the resourceful thief played by Sammo Hung.
Did Jackie Chan really perform the clock-tower fall in Project A?
Yes, Chan performed the famous drop from the clock tower, falling through awnings before hitting the ground. The sequence deliberately evokes Harold Lloyd's clock scene in the 1923 silent comedy Safety Last!
Which Jackie Chan collaborators appear in Project A?
Project A brings together Jackie Chan, Sammo Hung, and Yuen Biao, the performers often called the Three Dragons. Yuen Biao plays police inspector Hong Tin-tsu, while Hung plays Chan's slippery friend Fei.
Does Project A have a direct sequel?
Yes, Project A Part II followed in 1987, again directed by and starring Jackie Chan. Sammo Hung and Yuen Biao did not return in their original leading roles, so the sequel gives Dragon Ma a substantially different supporting cast.
