Interview JCVD Jean Claude Van Damme Pound of Flesh by kmiller | on May 5, 2015
I recently had the opportunity to ask Jean-Claude Van Damme a few questions about Pound of Flesh. I sent him a few and figured that he’s pretty busy and that I’d only get a couple of responses back. Still, I wanted to share them with you because it’s still a tremendous opportunity for us to get some insight regarding the film. Here are the questions that he answered:
Pound of Flesh Marks the third collaboration between you and director Ernie Barbarash. What has been your experience working with him?
Ernie knows me. He gets it. He’s smart, you know. I like smart people….He’s very relaxed and quiet with the actors…He’s a cool guy, plus he’s a good director and a good writer.
But I’m afraid for Ernie. He’s done so many good movies. And they call him in a sense a doctor because sometimes he comes on the set to fix movies. And they take advantage of his good heart. And you know, he’s got to work. But I think Ernie should get the chance to have a movie with a studio one day with or without me where he can get the 55 days of shoot. Then you will see Ernie Barbarash.
The action in Pound of Flesh is one of the highlights of the film. How was working with John Salvitti and incorporating his brand of action?
John and I are good together, great. He came up with some great moves because you know, jujutsu, it’s something, it’s like spaghetti, you know. In America, at the age of 13, it’s wrestling. In Europe, it’s soccer. So jujitsu is kind of difficult for me you know….So John knew how to do those moves, all those arm bar, all that stuff…To me, I still like to stay up….’cause I’m so good with my fist…and my legs…In fact, jujitsu, it’s cool. It’s calculated. And you need a great condition and John Salvitti brought me that essence and those techniques on the set. So I want to say Thank You again to John and hopefully the people will love the fight scenes.
I do want to take another moment to thank JCVD for even answering any of the questions that I had. I enjoyed the film quite a bit and hope this gives everyone some insight as to what went into the creation of the film. Also, I want to thank all of you who are reading this interview and supporting the site. If it wasn’t for you, I wouldn’t even be able to ask questions to someone as iconic and amazing as JCVD. Thanks to everyone who made this happen and best of luck to them on their future endeavors!
