Jackie Chan is in negotiations to star in the remake of "The Karate Kid." says THR.
Chan would play Mr. Miyagi, the role made famous by the late great Pat Morita.
Jaden Smith, is set to star as the boy that Chan trains, and the movie will again center on the relationship between a martial arts expert and a boy who is being bullied.
Harald Zwart. has signed on to call the shots which will begin production this year.--With Agent Cody Banks, and The Pink Panther 2 on Zwart's resume he seems an unlikely choice in that department...Chan is however, a fine pick--toning down his cartoony stunts should be interesting to see.
Chris Murphy wrote the screenplay
Jaden's papa Will Smith will co-produce.
