Some excellent news broke over the weekend, and with the excitement with Empire Big Screen, we are still playing catch up. So here it is. Our good buddies over at HeyUGuys.co.uk broke the news that the one and only Jean Claude Van Damme is set to star in British movie UFO, which actually kicks off shooting up in Derby today (August 15).
Along with the news of the ‘Muscles from Brussels’ appearing in the film, alongside Sean Brosnan (yep, Pierce’s son), Simon Phillips, Andrew Shim, Jazz Lintott, Peter Barratt, Forbes KB and Maya Grant.Dominic Burns directs from his own script.
HUG also posted the first poster for the film, which you can see a cropped version of above (see it in full here).
Here’s the plot synopsis:
Synopsis: Five friends wake on a seemingly normal morning to find the power’s out, there’s no mobile phone reception and the radio can tune nothing but static… None of the neighbours know anything about what could have caused these occurrences and news soon arrives that it may in fact spread across half of the UK, maybe further. But with no way of discovering any information and no advice on what to do, the atmosphere quickly turns edgy.
Two nights later they are awoken in the dead of night by what seems like a violent earthquake, strange lights are spotted shining down from high above outside, something is flying over the house, not just the house, the entire neighbourhood, something huge. A city size UFO, finally settles, hovering in the distance above the nearest city.
What now? Are they going to attack? Have they already attacked? Are the power cuts an accidental side effect the UFO isn’t aware of? How quickly will society deteriorate and turn into survival of the fittest? What would you do to survive, to ensure the survival of those you love?
Whatever happens… Try to remain calm.
