 Starring: Jaden Smith • Jackie Chan

 “Two worlds. One dragon. Legacy awakens.” 

 Plot:
Set years after the animated series, American Dragon: Jake Long (2026) reimagines the beloved Disney property as a live-action fantasy action film.

Jake Long (Jaden Smith) is a street-smart New York teen hiding an ancient secret — he is the last American Dragon, sworn to protect the magical creatures living secretly among humans. When a rogue dark-magic syndicate resurfaces to harvest dragon energy and expose the mystical world, Jake is forced out of hiding.

Guiding him is Master Lao Shi (Jackie Chan), a legendary dragon guardian who blends ancient Eastern discipline with modern-world wisdom. As Jake struggles between normal teenage life and his destiny, he must unlock the full power of the dragon spirit within him before both worlds collide.
