After 10 years, when Jack went to China for his movie interview a man came up to him and told that Jackie wants to meet him. As Jack was so eager to meet Jackie, he left the interview in the middle and followed that man. That man took him into a penthouse and Jack had to pass 15 crews to reach to Jackie. Jack revealed that Jackie is famous everywhere but in Shanghai, China people treat him like a god and they are so crazy about him so he has to hide from them. He finally got to meet the Jackie, talked with him, shake hands and when they are talking Jackie told him to think of a movie so that they can work together.

People don't know that he was there in that movie. 

He said that it was the first movie he had done in life, and he was very nervous. 

He worked with Tim Roberts at that time, and he was a big fan of Tim Roberts. 

While shooting, he even thought that Tim hates him. 

He felt that he was not doing good during the shooting playing his character, but when he later watched the movie, he was shocked because his acting turned out good, and he learned that something that doesn't feel great doesn't mean it's not great. 

Concerned About Weight 

In the talk show with Conan, Jack talked about him being concerned with his weight. 

He was 235 pounds when he was giving this interview and said that he was doing a lot of exercises to lose some weight. 

He opened up that he had been cycling, climbing the mountain to lose weight. 

He wants to lose weight because he wants to live longer and stay healthier. 

He said that one of his friends lost weight became 225 pounds, as he was 235 before. It made him crazy knowing about that, and because of that, he said he was working hard to lose weight.

Early Age Addiction To Cocaine

But many people don't know about Jack being involved in drugs in his early days. 

Jack started taking cocaine when he was just 14 years old.

He said that he was having a very hard time in his life, and because of that, he started taking cocaine and became addicted to it.

Taking Drugs To Control Eating

Jack opened up about being on a diet to be physically fit and lose weight. 

He said that he has been working hard to lose some weight and is doing good on it. 

But one thing that makes him unhappy is his inability to control his eating habits. 

He said that he is obsessed with cheese, and he cannot resist it. 

He always craves cheeseburgers and cheese macaroni. 

No matter how hard he tries, he cannot stop himself from eating that. 

So because of that, he is taking medicine that controls his hunger and makes him eat less. 

But sadly, that medicine is not affecting him, so he is thinking of increasing his medicine dose.
