JCVD was in Turkey late August 2018 and talked to the press about The Tower.
Translation by Google: The legendary actor who talked with the reporters before the ceremony said that he finished filming the film "The Tower": "I dedicate this film to Bruce Lee, whom I consider to be my brother."

Translation by Google: Van Damme, the world famous actor who informed us about the new movie, stated that The Tower is the name of the new film. "The character who will play in the film has lost his memory after an accident, he does not remember anything. He goes up to Vegas, because he's got nothing in Thailand, but he's got a lot of people with beautiful hearts and he does not lose anything between people, he's very famous there, his reputation spreads to America, he's becoming a warrior and he's starting to remember his past. " He was used. Sourse: www.sabah.com.tr/magazin/2018/09/01/jean-claude-van-damme-turk-insaninin-buyuleyici?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=twitter
Info from the manuscript of The Tower: Wiston Baxter (Jean-Claude Van Damme) is a former prominent fighter (Wiston “The Piston” Baxter) who now works in a factory. He lost his memory after a car accident. He gets flashbacks from his past and goes to see illegal fights in an abandoned factory, where he suddenly remembers his past. A promoter present at illegal fight remembers who Winston was and puts Winston back in the ring as “The Tower”.
Wiston will have to fight with his own son Daniel, who has become one of the industries new and sky rocketing up coming fighters and has preserved and multiplied his hatred for his father. Michelle accompanying her brother in the tournament became a forced witness of father and son war.

This makes sense now, he is going to get in shape for The Tower. JCVD has mentioned at least twice in the live videos that he is going to get in very good shape for a movie role. JCVD: "I'm going to make a movie which will require a lot of flexibility, dexterity and I will have to put on muscles." He talks about it at -1:13 www.facebook.com/JCVDworld/videos/305566836916622/?fref=ts

I'm really confused. We passed from the announce of Falcon Man (now a TV show) to the "finished filming" of The Tower (What ). I think we have to wait until JC leave Turkey to understand something.

I think that it is impossible that the shooting is already finished for The tower ... when would the film have been shot? the latest news there was more news that it turns Expandables 4 in January ... For "The tower" we'll see because I'm still puzzled ... the film should have seen the light 15 years ago ...

It's most likely the bad translation by Google. We need the correct translation of this sentence: Tören öncesi muhabirlerle bir araya gelen usta oyucu, “Kule” adlı filminin çekimlerini bitirdiğini söyledi
Anyone here who understands Turkish?

the film should have seen the light 15 years ago ... Do you think he is too old for this role now?

Je ne pense pas qu'il soit trop vieux mais ce projet a été reporté beaucoup trop de fois pour que nous y croyions encore ... JC nous dit à un moment qu'il va tourner "Lionheart 2" et "The Quest 2" à la fin ont changé ses plans et considéré "Trois coyotes" et "Doublex2action" ... et maintenant nous apprenons qu'il veut tirer "La tour" à nouveau ... ce n'est pas clair du tout! Moi ce que je souhaite c'est qu'il puisse faire tourner Ex4 et que Full Love soit enfin sorti ...

I do not think he's too old but this project has been postponed too many times for us to believe it again ... JC tells us at one point that he will shoot "Lionheart 2" and "The Quest 2" in the end changed his plans and considered "Three Coyotes" and "Doublex2action" ... and now we learn that he wants to shoot "The Tower" again ... it's not clear at all! What I want is that he can shoot Ex4 and that Full Love is finally out ... I understand it's hard to believe that The Tower is going to happen anytime soon. I hope he does shoot it with a year or so because he will play a professional fighter and the longer he waits the more unrealistic it gets.
JCVD did say it will take a long time to prepare the movie Three Coyotes, so that one isn't going to happen any time soon.

If you want my honest opinion I don't like the supposed story involving Kris. I like him but he can't do a martial arts film as the lead without having particular skills, it would turn out as a semi-joke. "The Tower" should be like the unfinished Bruce Lee project "Game of Death" where JC fight a martial artist on each level of the tower. Kris should play a supporting role and JC should give us his last martial arts film as the lead.

I hope I'm wrong but I think that "The Tower" will never see the day ... here in France, we had a documentary filmed in 2003 where JC was writing the script of this film ... The film was even validated by some producers and had to come out around 2005 ... I think it would be more likely to find a producer and distributor for Lionheart 2 or Double Impact 2 because the first were a great success and it would have attracted the nostalgic in theaters .... This is only my opinion but for me Van Damme must first resume training with Claude Goetz and after he may consider returning a fight movie ... In the meantime, we will take full eyes with Expandables 4! (100% confirmed)

September 8, 2018 Facebook live video -13:20: www.facebook.com/JCVDworld/videos/889698474574211/?fref=ts"To show you how I stretch, how to go back in shape, for a movie I love to do. Which is called The Tower. A man who lost his memory and flies himself with 5 losers all the way from Thailand to Las Vegas. Trying to become somebody again, great film. I wrote it 8 years ago. And it's based on real facts."

I guess Claude Goetz will help JCVD train for The Tower.
Claude Goetz: Saturday, August 25, 2018 at 00.30 am visit of my student at his Prof, need advice before his departure for Turkey scheduled for 13 hours.. as always everything is settled positively ...
