Stanley Tong (Chinese: 唐季禮; pinyin: Táng Jìlǐ; born 7 April 1960) is a Hong Kong film director, producer, stunt choreographer, screenwriter, entrepreneur and philanthropist.

Their first collaboration, Police Story 3: Super Cop (警察故事3：超级警察) (1992), broke box office records in many Asian countries and received a nomination for Best Film at the Golden Horse Awards.

Tong customarily attempts stunts himself before asking actors to risk themselves, e.g., Jackie Chan's leap from a parking garage roof to a fire escape in Rumble in the Bronx and the finale of Stone Age Warriors.

After his long absence away from home, Tong directed his first film in his homeland, China Strike Force (雷霆战警).

In the same year, Tong also helped produce Asia's first 3D CGI animated film, DragonBlade: The Legend of Lang.

Both local and foreign lecturers who are well known in the industry have been invited to give lessons for the program, and the best students receive opportunities to play in films invested by Tong’s company.

The purpose of the program was to find a new star, skilled in acting and martial arts, to become Chan's "successor", the champion being awarded the lead role in a film.
