Hong Kong martial arts actor Donnie Yen Ji-dan paid tribute to Hong Kong director Benny Chan Muk-Sing, who died over the weekend from cancer at the age of 58.
“I will miss your smile, our creative exchanges and fatherhood stories. You will be greatly missed my friend. RIP,” he wrote on Facebook and Instagram.
“Benny and I first worked on the TV series Kung Fu Master and Fist Of Fury, back in 1995-1997. Benny was the producer and director. I was fortunate to work with him again on our latest film: Raging Fire. 25 years later, he’s still the same positive, strong, happy, inspiring director and friend.”
Chan is best known for directing Jackie Chan movies such as New Police Story and Who Am I? Chan was diagnosed with nasopharyngeal cancer in 2019 after falling ill while filming his last film, Raging Fire, which stars Yen and Nicholas Tse.
