SUPER COP: REBORN – Stanley Tong wants Jackie Chan and Michelle Yeoh team up in new “Police Story” sequel
Stanley Tong’s career began as a stuntman in Hong Kong. He transitioned to directing as part of the Jackie Chan Stunt Team’s 4th generation, tasked with directing “Police Story 3: Super Cop” for Golden Harvest.

Now, Tong aims to recapture his initial success with a surprising sequel.
