A24 Bloodsport Remake in Talks, Jean-Claude Van Damme Involvement Clarified

by

It’s said that studio A24 might be negotiating to obtain the rights for a fresh take on the movie “Bloodsport,” as suggested by a recent update from The InSneider’s Jeff Sneider, who further hinted at the possible participation of Jean-Claude Van Damme.

As per Sneider’s latest update, discussions are ongoing for A24 to secure the rights to this upcoming project. This strategic decision is made as A24 aims to expand its collection of projects, given its modest inventory of intellectual properties (IP) to choose from.

As a gaming enthusiast, I haven’t got any solid details yet about who might be stepping up to direct the Bloodsport reboot, but there’s definitely some buzz surrounding Jean-Claude Van Damme’s role in the project.

Is Jean-Claude Van Damme in the Bloodsport remake?

As a devoted gamer, I’ve got to share some news about my favorite action game series – don’t get too excited if you were hoping for the return of the legendary star. According to Sneider’s report, A24 is planning a full-blown reboot of the property, which probably means our beloved Jean-Claude Van Damme won’t be making a comeback. Once A24 finalizes the deal, they’re aiming to collaborate with an action director who brings something fresh and exciting to the table, along with a promising young actor to spearhead this new project. Let’s keep our fingers crossed for another thrilling adventure!

Released in 1988, Bloodsport was helmed by Newt Arnold with Jean-Claude Van Damme, Leah Ayres, Forest Whitaker, Donald Gibb, Roy Chiao, and Bolo Yeung as key actors. The film chronicles the tale of a US Army Captain participating in an illegal, full-contact martial arts competition known as the Kumite.
