On Wednesday, the organizers of the 3rd Xi'an Silk Road International Film Festival announced that 62 year old Jackie Chan will be the film festival's official spokesperson.

In the report done by China Daily, the organizers selected the actor for his interest in the Silk Road which is mirrored in some of his works. In December 2015, for instance, he started in the action-epic movie 'Dragon Blade' which portrays the legend about a battle between Chinese and Roman armies in the Silk Road.

The incoming 3rd Xi'an Silk Road International Film Festival is slated on September 19 to 23 and organized by China's movie regulator and the local governments of Shaanxi and Fujian.
