The 1978 movie Jackie Chan will always regret making for one reason: “I have to be careful”
Jackie Chan has said he regrets the influence his role in the 1978 film *Drunken Master* may have had on young viewers. He believes some fans copied its drinking and fighting, prompting him to think more carefully about the messages his films convey.
Chan played Wong Fei-hung, who learns discipline under the martial arts instructor Beggar So. Sixteen years later, *Drunken Master II* showed a more mature Wong; Chan described it as a way to correct his earlier mistake. He has also spoken about using charity work to encourage young people to care for the world and protect the environment.
