Overseasidol.com — A post claiming that Jackie Chan had died from complications related to old stunt injuries recently spread rapidly on overseas social platforms.
The post even included a fabricated date to make the claim appear real. It quickly gained attention and caused confusion among fans.
However, the rumor collapsed almost immediately. Jackie Chan updated his social media on November 11 to promote his upcoming movie, proving he is very much alive.
Several media outlets later confirmed that the viral rumor was generated using AI tools and urged the public to stay alert to misleading online content.
Jackie Chan has faced similar false reports for years. Since 2015, various fake news posts have repeatedly used his past injuries and edited images to create death hoaxes.
This latest incident added AI-generated visuals, which made the misinformation appear more credible to some users.
Jackie Chan also previously clarified rumors about his health. He said his “weak appearance” in a circulating photo was simply a character look for a film that required white hair and a white beard.
