Jean-Claude Van Damme (Enemies Closer) is once again teaming up with Swelter director Keith Parmer for The Penrose Affair, an action thriller about a French detective in Paris. According to Variety, the upcoming film will be influenced by Alfred Hitchcock and Pierre Morel’s Taken.
This news may not excite the avid Van Damme fan, especially considering Swelter’s lukewarm reception. Cityonfire.com’s Kyle Warner had this to say about it: “Swelter may disappoint with a story full of plot contrivances and by wasting Van Damme in a throwaway role, but some fine performances and sharp dialogue manage to make the film strangely likable. It’s a B-movie, to be sure, but it’s a B-movie with some style.
Other Van Damme projects in the works includeKickboxer: Vengeance, as well as the rumored MMA-based flick, The Tower. His latest, Pound of Flesh, is scheduled to be released later this year. Stay tuned!
