That's what Danny Glover did by doing some of the Lethal Weapon sequels. It was a dumd move. I guess Van Damme was thinking about character when he did Desert Heat!

I just don't think he could handle it, he'll never be the actor Sly is, I just think he couldn't stand the fact that someone was gonna over-shadow him in a movie... which I imagine wouldn't be hard to do. If I was him, I woulda took all the parts I could get... it's a lot better than playin butt darts in foreign films.... Stallone's the man....

I'd like to see him among such action stars. And I want to say that even if he'd appear in 1 scene would be great because he's already a big star. He doesn't need any movie to prove it. <br>It was a good chance to have theatrical release. If there were a chance i would say to my star JCVD. go ahead and share. <br>any way good luck to you. and we are waiting for more movies. but theatrical release.

It gives me shivers just reading about the cast. It does disappoint me to see how other actors for some reason or another are turning down their roles. To me this movie is not about being the best individual- It's about working together with others and using your strengths combined to make the best action movie ever! It disappoints me that actors would turn down even a cameo role that is designed to promote regognition to all the hard work they have put in on previous engagements, and good times they have had in presenting us (The viewers) with great masterpieces. If they get heaps of money for it, they deserve it. I have had an enjoyable childhood (and adulthood) because of it. Role models re very important to us- and to be able to go to the cinema to fantasise and romantasise about great heroes is awesome. <br><br>In short- I really think the following actors would be a great addition to the film, regardless of how they would feel about it: It is what we want as FANS!<br>Jean-Claude Van Damme<br>Kurt Russell<br>Steven Segal<br>Chuck Norris<br>I would love so much to be in their position-I would jump at the chance to work with these guys!!!

In short- I really think the following actors would be a great addition to the film, regardless of how they would feel about it: It is what we want as FANS!
Jean-Claude Van Damme
Kurt Russell
Steven Segal
Chuck Norris
I would love so much to be in their position-I would jump at the chance to work with these guys!!!
