The Protector is a 1985 action film directed by James Glickenhaus and starring Jackie Chan, Danny Aiello, and Roy Chiao. A Hong Kong–American co-production, it was Chan's second attempt at breaking into the American film market, after 1980 film The Big Brawl, which had moderate box office success but was considered a disappointment. Conflicts between Glickenhaus and Chan during production led to two official versions of the film: Glickenhaus' original version for American audiences and a Hong Kong version re-edited by Jackie Chan. The original Glickenhaus cut only received a sparse release in North America, while Chan's edited version was a moderate success in Asia.
