Jean-Clade Van Damme has confirmed that he is set to hit the Cannes Film Festival in the south of France this year to promote a few different projects. In a recent Instagram post, the action star revealed that he will hit the famous croisette to launch his new movie The Bouncer and also a film called Blood and Land.
The interesting news here though is that he has also revealed that he will start work on Lionheart 2, the sequel to his 1990 film Lionheart (above), which saw him play a French soldier who begins participating in underground street fights in order to make money for his brother’s family. If the name isn’t too familiar, it was released as A.W.O.L. in the UK, so your lack of knoweledge of its Stateside name is forgivable.
