No Van Damme in Timecop Remake
Posted 23rd May 2013 at 02:47 PM by Bringer Of Funerals
It has been officially announced by Universal that there will be no Jean-Claude Van Damme in Timecop remake, the upcoming movie obviously inspired by the sci-fi flick released back in 1994.
Everyone knows that all the movies from the Belgian actor became some kind of a “cult”, so is it wise to plan a remake of Peter Hyams’ film without Jean? Maybe Universal needs to stop and think for a second to what happened to Sony and the near disastrous performance of Total Recall without Schwarzenegger.
Universal Pictures has begun development on a rebooted Timecop movie.
Marc Shmuger and Tom McNulty will produce the new film based on the Dark Horse Comics property, according to The Hollywood Reporter.
The 1994 film was considered a major success for star Jean-Claude Van Damme. It went on to spawn a short-lived television show and a straight-to-video sequel, Timecop 2: The Berlin Decision, in 2003.
The property is set in a future in which time travel is policed by the Time Enforcement Commission.
Officer Max Walker is known for his brutal efficiency, but he finds himself struggling to prevent a plot by a corrupt politician to forever change the future.
Universal is currently seeking writers for the project. Van Damme is not involved.
