The Muscles from Brussels JEAN-CLAUDE VAN DAMME goes beyond the norm as he is “abducted” by UFO!
Not to worry, everyone’s favorite kung fu king hasn’t been taken away by ETs to teach them kickboxing, The Hollywood Reporter said.
The resurgent action man has inked a deal to sign for a new Brit sci-fier called – yup – “UFO” and it starts shooting in the Derbyshire, England this week.
Van Damme plays a retired military advisor in the movie, UFO, written and directed by Dominic Burns which has nothing to do with the long running TV series “UFO” produced by Gerry and Sylvia Anderson nor Jack Webb’s “Project UFO”.
The director told BBC News he contacted Van Damme by emailing his wife and was “astonished when the star agreed to play the role.”
"UFO" details what happens when a city-sized UFO appears in the sky as tension and fear grips the UK in a wave of terror.
Needless to say, Van Damme WILL kick major alien butt.
