Jackie Chan replaces Hollywood hand prints

Jackie Chan

Jackie Chan left imprints of his hands and feet in cement at Hollywood's Chinese Theatre for a second time on Thursday - after his previous prints were lost.

The 59-year old film star -- whose career has spanned 40 years -- first left imprints in the theatre forecourt in 1997. But the cement slab featuring Chan's prints has since disappeared. His imprints join those of many screen legends including Clark Gable, Marilyn Monroe and Humphrey Bogart.

Chan, who is the first star to have his prints done twice, was joined by Rush Hour co-star Chris Tucker and Karate Kid co-star Jaden Smith.

Last month at the Cannes film festival, Chan told Reuters that after countless broken bones and smashed teeth, he was giving up doing his own stunts but hoped to continue acting.
