Biography:
Almost every kung fu movie star came to the genre to become famous — Jet Li arrived in cinema already famous. By the time of his first shoots, he had been the undisputed national wushu champion of China for several years running, had performed before the President of the United States, and was considered the great hope of the national team. Cinema turned the athlete into the idol of a billion-strong country, and then into one of the few Asian stars to conquer Hollywood. He never became a great dramatic actor and, it seems, never aspired to be one: in his best roles, Jet Li embodies a calm, almost detached power — a man who has nothing to prove, because everything is already evident in the way he moves. That is how audiences remember him from Once Upon a Time in China, Fist of Legend and Hero.

Один проект же?
В "Храме Шаолинь" полкоманды снимается, просто ему повезло, и его на гл роль поставили
А когда фильм сделал Джета звездой (видимо, только Китая на тот момент), сняли документалку (This is Kung-Fu), где показали народу, что звезды тоже как все живут - почитают родителей, большой обеденный стол на всех, а заодно прорекламировали боевое искусство.
Вряд ли ведь он по кастингам бегал)
И если Джет Ли - Jet Li, то правильней получается Джет Лай?
P.S. Кстати, не первый раз возникает чувство, что автор сайта недолюбливает Джета Ли, поэтому вставляет на его страницу или какие-нибудь дурацкие кадры или фото со съёмок Героя, как бы намекая малознакомому с темой зрителю, что Джет мастер только по полетам на веревках.
