Jackie Chan Praises Will Smith's son Jaden



HONG KONG - Jackie Chan says "Kung Fu Kid" co-star Jaden Smith's dedication to martial arts puts his own son to shame.

The 11-year-old son of Will Smith and Jada Pinkett Smith has been training under Chan's stunt coordinator for his role in the remake of the 1984 hit "The Karate Kid." The movie will be about A single mother (Taraji P. Henson)who has to move to China with her young son due to work pressures. In his new home, the boy (Jayden Smith)embraces karate, taught to him by a master of the self-defense form. "Kung Fu Kid" kicked off filming in Beijing on July 11 and will be in theatres in 2010.

In a diary entry on his official Web site, Chan said he was deeply impressed by the younger Smith's progress when he visited Los Angeles last month.
"Jaden is very clever, hard working, and he practices every day. No matter how difficult or tiring it is, he still continues with the routine and endures to the end."
