Biggers loosely based Chan on Hawaiian detective <a href="/wiki/Chang_Apana" title="Chang Apana">Chang Apana</a>. The benevolent and heroic Chan was conceived as an alternative to <a href="/wiki/Yellow_Peril" title="Yellow Peril">Yellow Peril</a> stereotypes and villains like <a href="/wiki/Fu_Manchu" title="Fu Manchu">Fu Manchu</a>. Many stories feature Chan traveling the world beyond <a href="/wiki/Hawaii" title="Hawaii">Hawaii</a> as he investigates mysteries and solves crimes. </p><p>Chan first appeared in Biggers' novels and then was featured in a number of media. Over four dozen <a href="/wiki/Films" class="mw-redirect" title="Films">films</a> featuring Charlie Chan were made, beginning in 1926. The character, featured only as a supporting character, was first portrayed by East Asian actors, and the films met with little success. In 1931, for the first film centering on Chan, <i><a href="/wiki/Charlie_Chan_Carries_On_(film)" title="Charlie Chan Carries On (film)">Charlie Chan Carries On</a></i>, the <a href="/wiki/Fox_Film_Corporation" class="mw-redirect" title="Fox Film Corporation">Fox Film Corporation</a> cast <a href="/wiki/Swedish_people" class="mw-redirect" title="Swedish people">Swedish</a> actor <a href="/wiki/Warner_Oland" title="Warner Oland">Warner Oland</a>; the film became popular, and Fox went on to produce 15 more Chan films with Oland in the title role. After Oland's death, American actor <a href="/wiki/Sidney_Toler" title="Sidney Toler">Sidney Toler</a> was cast as Chan; Toler made 22 Chan films, first for Fox and then for <a href="/wiki/Monogram_Studios" class="mw-redirect" title="Monogram Studios">Monogram Studios</a>. After Toler's death, six films were made, starring <a href="/wiki/Roland_Winters" title="Roland Winters">Roland Winters</a>. </p><p>Readers and moviegoers of America greeted Chan warmly. Chan was seen as an attractive character, portrayed as intelligent, heroic, benevolent, and honorable; this contrasted with the common depiction of Asians as evil or conniving which dominated Hollywood and national media in the early 20th century. However, in later decades critics increasingly took a more ambivalent view of the character. Despite his good qualities, Chan was also perceived as reinforcing condescending Asian stereotypes such as an alleged incapacity to speak idiomatic English and a tradition-bound and subservient nature. No Charlie Chan film has been produced since 1981. </p><p>The character has also been featured in several <a href="/wiki/Radio_programs" class="mw-redirect" title="Radio programs">radio programs</a>, two <a href="/wiki/Television_shows" class="mw-redirect" title="Television shows">television shows</a>, and <a href="/wiki/Comics" title="Comics">comics</a>. </p> <meta property="mw:PageProp/toc" /> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Books">Books</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Charlie_Chan&action=edit&section=1" title="Edit section: Books"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>The character of Charlie Chan was created by <a href="/wiki/Earl_Derr_Biggers" title="Earl Derr Biggers">Earl Derr Biggers</a>.
