The Medallion 2 (2026) — First Trailer | Starring: Jackie Chan, Jake Gyllenhaal.

After two decades away from the spotlight of endless wars, Eddie Yang (Jackie Chan) has chosen a peaceful, quiet life, where the power that once helped him overcome all limits has gradually faded over the years. But peace never lasts. When the notorious shadow organization—The Obsidian Hand—unearths the other half of the Golden Medal, the mystical order of the world is turned upside down. The boundaries between life and death, light and darkness, reality and myth are all shaken.The trailer unfolds at a dizzying pace, almost drawing the audience into a world where every heartbeat is tense. Jake Gyllenhaal steps in as Agent Ryan Cole, a seasoned Interpol agent, always full of doubts and energy, who is forced to cooperate with Eddie—a once-famous legend, now old and tired. Their combination is a collision of fire and ice: Cole’s impulsive, serious personality is in complete contrast to Eddie’s wit, intelligence and fighting experience. The audience can immediately feel the tension in every scene, where the two sides must not only cooperate but also learn to trust each other to survive.

The action scenes take viewers to the peak of adrenaline: Eddie, despite his age, still performs his signature acrobatic stunts on the roofs of skyscrapers in Macau. The kicks, flips, and swings in the air are a perfect blend of classic Hong Kong kung fu and modern, violent but refined fighting styles. Every move is meticulously choreographed, making viewers hold their breath with every jump, every punch, every powerful spinning kick.Meanwhile, the mystical power begins to spread when the two halves of the Gold Medal are placed close together. A terrifying rift appears, shooting out flickering blue energy, causing the space around them to shake. In a European museum, ancient terracotta warriors awaken, eyes glowing and weapons in hand, ready to attack. This scene is not only terrifying, but also opens up a mythical depth to The Medallion universe, revealing that the power of the Gold Medallion is not only immortal, but also tied to human history and the dark forces that seek to manipulate it.

The trailer culminates with the appearance of the final villain—a mysterious, masked figure who possesses the ability to control darkness and time. With his cold appearance and authoritative gestures, he is a threat far beyond any opponent Eddie has ever encountered. The dialogue between Eddie and Cole clearly depicts the character’s psychology:
Agent Cole: “They say you can’t die, old man.”
Eddie smiles, his eyes calm but powerful: “I’m not worried about me. I’m worried about you.”One of the most memorable moments is when Eddie stands among the army of the dead, touching the glowing Medallion. A bright burst of energy erupts, making him younger, faster, and glowing with pure light. In the blink of an eye, Eddie executes a perfect spinning kick on a giant enemy, affirming that immortality is still in his hands. The screen fades to black, leaving only the echo: “The Guardian is reborn.” This is not just an action scene, but also a symbol of rebirth, of the passing of the legendary torch from one generation to the next.

What makes The Medallion 2 special is not just the crazy action or the amazing effects, but also the balance of human elements, friendship, courage, and subtle humor. Jackie Chan still retains the charm, humor, and vitality in every jump, every witty line, while Jake Gyllenhaal brings seriousness, strength, and psychological depth to Agent Cole. This combination makes the film both tense and entertaining, both engaging the audience with action and touching the emotions.In addition, The Medallion 2 expands the mystical universe with new lore details: the power of the Gold Medallion not only brings immortality, but also controls the world order; ancient warriors rise from the museum; and a dark organization manipulates time and darkness to seize ultimate power. Every detail is meticulously staged, making viewers not only enjoy the action but also curious about the backstory and origin of the Medallion.

The trailer ends with a feeling of suspense but full of hope. Eddie Yang returns, stronger and younger, bringing the message that the legend never dies, but is just waiting for the moment to return. The Medallion 2 is more than just a sequel; it’s a passing on the torch, a spectacular return for “The King of Action” Jackie Chan, teamed with a promising new partner.

Verdict: The Medallion 2 is a complete cinematic experience: epic action, insane martial arts, deep mystery, and vibrant characters. A must-see for any action fan—prepare to cheer and be amazed.
