October 16, 2024 www.fortressofsolitude.co.za/interview-filmmaker-dimitri-logothetis-director-movies/You mentioned Kickboxer 3 is in the works. Is Van Damme confirmed to make an appearance or is that still to be determined?I have got him on my phone right now. He leaves me messages in the middle of the night, sometimes depending on where he is, and we’re going back and forth again. And I would love for him to be in it, and we’re just kind of talking about how we’re going to be able to implement that. So, it depends on what he’s doing. But there’s also a Kickboxer television series in the works, so we have been working on that for a while, so we’ll see how that goes. Earlier this year, I saw the news that Scott Adkins and Paige VanZant were confirmed for Kickboxer 3: Armageddon. We interviewed Scott for his new movie Take Cover recently and he’s perfect for Kickboxer. Are they still on board and ready to go?We had to push the film back because it wasn’t ready to go. Scott was very enthusiastic about it; hopefully, once we get a new date, he’s going to commit again. I love Scott, and I think Scott would add a completely different energy to Kickboxer. I would love to get Scott back into the project. I mean, come on, he’s a modern-day legend when it comes to martial arts.

Do you know Andy Long Nguyen? He is one of the new Martial Arts generation who recreates many Jackie Chan fights on his YouTube channel.
Among other things, he has already fought Scott Adkins twice: Undisputed 4 and Accident Man 2.

This project gets delay after delay, I'm no longer confident that it will happen. It's been too long since the last film, in my opinion a new martial arts project would be better, this franchise has already given everything it could give, only a fight between Alain Moussi and Scott Adkins could raise the bar a bit but at this point it's better to do it without milking this franchise.
