What happens

Kung Fu Yoga (Chinese: 功夫瑜伽) is a 2017 Chinese action adventure comedy film written and directed by Stanley Tong and produced by and starring Jackie Chan. Originally planned as a sequel to The Myth (2005), with Chan reprising his role as archaeologist Jack, A Legend (2024) has since been branded as a direct standalone sequel to that film. The film was released in China on 28 January 2017. It features original music composed by Nathan Wang and an ending dance number choreographed by Farah Khan. It is Jackie Chan's highest-grossing film in China. It was also the highest-grossing comedy film in China, until it was overtaken by Never Say Die (2017). (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
