Kickboxer remake to entertain new generation of 1990s-era dorm rooms

Producers continue to tap the rich vein of creative inspiration to be found in 1990s-era dorm rooms, moving forward with their previously reported remake of Kickboxer, in addition to those previously announced updates of other Jean-Claude Van Damme movies Bloodsport and Timecop, and the still-in-development film based on Trevor’s story about drinking too much Goldschläger. Like the 1989 original, this Kickboxer for a new generation will follow two Americans as they travel to a foreign land to compete in the titular sport against the brutal Tong Po—this time with Hong Kong standing in for Thailand, and the WWE’s Dave Bautista, UFC fighter Georges St. Pierre, and stuntman Alain Moussi combining forces to equal the acting prowess of a single Van Damme.
