Action movie legend Jean-Claude Van Damme returns to the genre in his latest film, “Darkness of Man.”
The first pictures from the movie show Van Damme fighting tough gangs in a dark and gritty thriller, similar to his recent successful movies like “JCVD.”
Darkness of Man trailer reveals Van Damme portrays a former Interpol operative turned father figure to Jayden, the son of an informant killed in a botched raid.
As Hatch, Van Damme showcases his unique skills while navigating the dangerous streets of Los Angeles.
Written and Directed by James Cullen Bressack
The film is written and directed by James Cullen Bressack, known for his work on “Fortress” with Bruce Willis and “Hot Seat” starring Mel Gibson.
“Darkness of Man” is described as a “passion project” for Van Damme and Bressack.
Star-Studded Cast
Joining Van Damme in the cast are Shannen Doherty (“Charmed”), Kristanna Loken (“Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines”), Spencer Breslin (“The Cat in the Hat”), Emerson Min (“Always Be My Maybe”), and Kirk “Sticky Fingaz” Jones (“Flight of the Phoenix”).
Van Damme Upcoming Projects
“Darkness of Man” is just one of several projects Van Damme is currently involved in. He will direct and star in the action-drama “Frenchy,” which has faced challenges but is now set for release.
Van Damme is also set to return to the “Kickboxer” franchise in “Kickboxer: Armageddon” alongside Scott Adkins and will portray a fictionalized version of himself in “What’s My Name?” where he battles opponents from his storied career while grappling with amnesia.
“Years later, Hatch finds himself protecting Jayden and his uncle from a group of merciless gangs in an all-out turf war, stopping at nothing to protect Jayden and fight anyone getting in his way — including supposed allies with hidden agendas and nefarious intents.”
