Rush Hour 3 Premieres in Tokyo

August 6, 2007

The Japanese premiere of Rush Hour 3 was held yesterday at the Roppongi Hills Arena in Tokyo. Hundreds of cheering fans came out to welcome Jackie and his costar Hiroyuki Sanada. The two stars arrived together in a limousine, and although security was tight, they both spent plenty of time greeting fans, signing autographs, and having photos taken. Jackie did his traditional "run along the red carpet slapping high-fives to fans" that has become his trademark. Both Jackie and Hiro talked to the press about their experience working together (all positive).

After promotion in Japan, Jackie will return to China. He will not be visiting Paris on this junket.
