Jackie Chan fights his way out of a tight corner in The Foreigner clip

Even at 63, Jackie Chan can still kick ass.

In the exclusive clip above from upcoming thriller The Foreigner, Chan stars as Quan, a father hunting down the terrorists who carried out the bombing that killed his daughter (the Harry Potter franchise’s Katie Leung). Here, a group of men hoping to keep him quiet have found him first, but he makes a brutal escape, taking them down one by one until he crashes through a window.

It’s one of several fight scenes in which Chan says he tried to capture his character’s (and his own) age. “I play the owner of a restaurant in the film, who has spent many years not moving around,” he told EW. “So my fighting style in this has to be believable.”

The Foreigner, also starring Pierce Brosnan,hits theaters Oct. 13.
