After wielding a cop's badge in Rush Hour and sporting chaps in Shanghai Noon, what uniform will Jackie Chan don next? ''I want to play a fireman in America,'' says Chan, who envisions a hoseman with — surprise — amazing martial-arts skills. ''It's been in my mind for years, after I see Backdraft. Great movie. I really want to meet Ron Howard and see if he interested in making Backdraft 2.'' Sorry to douse your fire, Jackie, but Ron's taking a pass. ''We have absolutely no plans to do a sequel to any of the films Ron's directed,'' says Michael Rosenberg, president of Howard's Imagine Entertainment. ''Ron is not about sequels.''
