Kazakh director Robert Kun has been chosen to direct Jackie Chan’s upcoming film Armor of God: Ultimatum, Orda.kz reports.
According to Salem Entertainment, the legendary actor personally selected Kun to serve as both director and fight choreographer for the project.
Robert Kun is among the few Kazakhstani filmmakers to have collaborated with major global studios, including Disney, Paramount, Universal, and 20th Century Fox. His credits include work on Major Grom: The Game, I Am Dragon, Wanted, and Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter.
Filming for Armor of God: Ultimatum is scheduled to begin in the spring of 2026.
