[Movies] Van Damme/Seagal Pairing Off
Posted by Ashish on 05.12.2009
Van Damme will now star with Vinnie Jones in Weapon...
Steven Seagal will no longer team with Jean-Claude Van Damme in Weapon. Vinnie Jones (X-Men: The Last Stand) will instead star alongside Van Damme.
The film is about Jack Conway (Jones) and Derek Chase (Van Damme) as the two best assassins in the world — but unknown to each other. While Conway is a master sharpshooter, Chase is equally skilled with a knife. These two rival assassins form an uneasy alliance to take down the head of a drug cartel, which is backed by the DEA.
Russell Mulcahy (Resident Evil: Extinction) will direct.

Both of these guys should be in " The Expendables"

Too bad, that would have been an Oscar worthy pairing
(note sarcasm)

Why don't Van Damme sign RVD?

So is this pairing a one shot deal?

This movie will suck but I would have watched it just to see Van Damme and Seagal in the same film. Oh well.

NOOOO! Damnit, Damnit, Damnit. I feel like I've been waiting for the Segal/Van Damme crossover longer than I waited for a Freddy vs. Jason movie. Both of these guys make such turds now they should understand that their last chance at a big pay off (or dare I say even a comeback) is a Segal vs. Van Damme movie. I guess I'll have to keep waiting.

I still liked it better when it was Tango and Cash and they were cops instead of assassins.

Just because the film's called Weapon, doesn't mean they had to cast the biggest fucking Weapon on the Earth, Vinnie Jones.
