The second Jean Claude Van Damme trailer in as many days. Hopefully this will be like an advent calendar and we’ll get 24 of the little blighters. This time Van Damme is going all bat-shit bonkers in what looks to be a villainous role where he isn’t holding back a thing. ENEMIES CLOSER sees a Tom Everett Scott as a park ranger and ex-Navy SEAL, who finds himself confronted by a man from his past, Orlando Jones. Jones is out to retrieve a hidden shipment of drugs, but he’s not the only one. The two find themselves working together after the maniacal Van Damme, and his group of mercenaries, also come looking for the heroin.
The trailer looks like a lot of fun, with Everett Scott and Jones giving particularly realistic performances for a film of this ilk. But it’s Van Damme, whose name is used as as pun in the trailer (always a good idea), that looks to be having more fun than ever. He seems to be more off the wall than he did in the trailer for his actual comedy, WELCOME TO THE JUNGLE. Peter Hyams, who has directed Van Damme in films such as TIMECOP and SUDDEN DEATH, takes the helm.
ENEMIES CLOSER is released in US theatres and on VOD on 24th January 2014. It stars Jean Claude Van Damme, Tom Everett Scott, Orlando Jones, and Linzey Cocker.
