Yesterday we brought you the American trailer for Jean-Claude Van Damme’s JCVD. Damme wrote, directed and is starring in his latest project Full Love, along with his two children Kristopher and Bianca Van Varenberg. The movie is filming in Thailand with a $5 million budget. From what I understand, Van Damme is supposedly working for next to nothing or scale, compared to his normal multi-million dollar asking price.  Twitch Film have gotten their hands on the first photos

Cinema Blend describes the script as “a heavy drama with romantic elements, in the vein of True Romance, without the clever dialogue.” The story follows Frenchy, a man who tries to free a Turkish whore with whom he is in love with, from her pimp. His best friend, “a bitter, crippled, alcoholic veteran of the Iraq war” ends up pissed at Frenchy for falling in love with someone from ‘over there’. Van Damme himself describes the film the project as “based on a true story, based in another reality” and “about love, friendship, and dedication.”

I’m not so sure about the film’s plot, but one thing is for sure, Van Damme is doing one hell of a job in an attempt to reinvent himself and revive his career.

  • i totally agree with van damme trying to redefine himself. i crazy was it when you realized he plays the same character in all of his movies. its nice to see hes trying not to go broke.

    I love his movies back in the early 90's, but problem with some of his movies is the annoying tag-along sidekicks. Hope he's not repeating it with this movie.
  • Van Damme can actually act. Watch Replicant for proof of that. Looking forward to JCVD and wish Full Love DID have the clever dialog of True Romance.

    So is his son playing Frenchy and his daughter playing the Turkish whore? If so, count me in.
  • Quentin taratino should of cast him for "Inglorious Bastards" he (tarantino) has a gift revive careers.

    Frenchy? Really?

    I think it's cool Van Damme is re-inventing himself.. I have a bit of more respect for him now.

    I can't really believe in this, but I would like to. Schwarzenegger governor of California. Stallone adding a mature Rocky and Rambo to his porfolio. And Van Damme reinventing himself as an indie-movie-icon. We understimated these guys, that's for sure. I expect Michael Dudkoff to do a documentary on brain-surgery soon and Steven Seagal to replace Sarah Palin.

    Vile82 that's a pretty smart idea.

    Anyway, JCVD is my new favorite actor. I didn't know the guy had these kind of smarts. We should have known when he agreed to play himself on Las Vegas and then have the episode be about him falling off a building.
