past may hold clues to the killer’s identity.

Sandra Bullock, and the MEGA hit film franchise RUSH HOUR 1 , 2 and 3. For his new film
THE FOREIGNER, the studio wanted Jackie Chan, Arthur got the call, Arthur brought in A-list
Director Martin Campbell and Jackie Chan signed on, a great example of how a movie can get
made in Hollywood, calling in power producer ARTHUR SARKISSIAN.
The China Premiere of this film will be September 24th, 2017.
Arthur Sarkissian will be in China for the premier. Sarkissian says “I look forward to
going back to China for the premiere next week, I have made many friends in China
and love doing movie business there; working with STX studios is great, they leave you alone
to do what you need to do and are extremely supportive of filmmakers.”
Sarkissian states “The role that Jackie plays is a straight dramatic role, which was a tough one to
play and Jackie pulls it off beautifully.
Sarkissian says “Re-teaming with Jackie Chan was a real joy, I have worked with him for over
20 Years; I find Jackie to be a real pro who is one of the most prepared and committed actors
with real charisma. The Foreigner is so different from anything Jackie has done to date, the
depth with which Jackie plays this role will surprise movie goers as he is simply amazing. Fans do not realize how much Jackie pushes himself, and though at this point he’s amassed an enormous amount of success and popularity worldwide, he still seeks roles that is unlike anything he’s done before.”
This is the first time Sarkissian has worked with Pierce Brosnan. Arthur loved working with
Pierce, and mentioned that he is one of the nicest people he has ever met, and alongside
Sean Connery, is the best James Bond ever.
Martin Campbell is the film’s director, best known for directing Bond movies Goldeneye and
Casino Royale. He also directed Edge of Darkness , The Mask of Zorro and The Legend of Zorro .
Campbell is a A-List film director, Sarkissian says, “He’s one of the most professional directors
out there. He’s also a great director for a producer to work with because he’s very collaborative,
and he doesn’t have an arrogant bone in his body.”
Arthur Sarkissian is giving selected interviews in advance of this film’s release
