Jean-Claude Van Damme: 'Double Impact 2' Script Is Written



"Double Impact" is arguably one of action legend Jean-Claude Van Damme's best films, for two reasons: It's got double the Van Dammage and another face-off against the great Bolo Yeung (who played his "Bloodsport" nemesis).

When we met JCVD last week, we took the opportunity to ask him about the "Double Impact" days -- and Van Damme began to gush about the possibility of a sequel.

"I wrote the script with a friend of mine Sheldon - He [co-wrote] "Bloodsport" and "Double Impact" with me," he told us. "Hopefully, somebody smart enough, like an agent or a producer, can put that back together...I'm excited about it, you know?"

One of the things Van Damme stressed was the lack of franchises in his career: "I have no franchise. I lost 'Bloodsport,' 'Lionheart.'"

"'Double Impact' [would be] a great franchise," he told us, explaining how he thinks his twin characters Chad and Alex might have evolved. "Today, Chad would be like the guy in 'JCVD' and Alex would be the guy like 'The Expendables.'"

and Bonus! He also talks about wanting 'Bloodsport' remake and how he'd want to play Shidoshi.

Whenever I see Van Damme, I just think of this:


/"More like Jean Claude Gosh Darn."

I really liked him in Second in Command from 2006. Those coors light adverts are disturbing.

This and bloodsport were my shit back in the day as a child and then I grew up and thought. Dad wtf were you watching with me/letting me watch as an infant/toddler

I also blame JCVD for my love of men with crazy abs/arms also if they do martial arts..smh @ myself.

I wished he made better life choices because he could be kicking ass with Statham right about now. I enjoyed JCVD and I like/liked JCVD's kickass style.
