Sinds JCVD lijkt Jean Claude Van Damme weer helemaal terug te zijn. De Belgische spierbonk is inmiddels alweer druk bezig met een nieuwe film, The Eagle Path.

Het project ligt in de lijn van films uit eind jaren 80, begin jaren 90. Slashfilm beschrijft The Eagle Path als een low-budget versie van Taken, met JCVD in de hoofdrol. Hieronder is de synopsis te lezen:

A military veteran and former mercenary, Frenchy (Van Damme) works as a taxi driver, hiding somewhere in East Asia, haunted by his past. After his driving shifts he often frequents the Eagle's Nest, a seedy bar that houses a caged eagle. In the midst of the chaotic Asian traffic Frenchy picks up a beautiful female passenger who will change him forever. Driven by dark memories of his childhood, he becomes determined to improve her life and, without her approval, he embarks on a journey which proves to be more dangerous and complicated then he expected. After encountering a series of harrowing obstacles he calls in favors from his special ops friends who immediately join him. His military team engages in the biggest fight of their lives. War is hell, but nothing they've done could have prepared them for this.
