The Asian site Star Online has a great article about the making of The Forbidden Kingdom and a Q & A with Jet Li.
Chan said he was “very comfortable” in the fight scenes. He had not had such a good fighting partner for many years since his memorable stunts with long-time friends Sammo Hung and Yuen Biao.
“I have not worked with someone whom I’m comfortable with, in terms of movements, rhythm and natural reactions, in the last 10 years.
“I have done many fight scenes with others but there were usually more than 10 takes, which is a waste of time as the person may forget his moves and unnecessary injuries.
“When I fought with Li, our actions were quick. We also didn’t have to do the same stunt over 20 times, just four times,” Chan explained.
