He's reportedly preparing to hold a news conference later.

Reports have been circulating Jaycee Chan is going to have a role in producing his father's new album.

However, Jackie Chan has gone on-record saying he's planning to continue working on his movie career, suggesting an album from the elder Chan is not in the works for the time-being.

32-year-old Jaycee Chan, an actor and singer himself, was detained in August along with Taiwan movie star Kai Ko for drug offences.

He's been the most high-profile of a string of celebrities who have been caught up in drug use in Beijing over the past year.
