Nicolas Cage Will Star in The Martial Arts Sci-Fi Action Film JIU JITSU
Nicolas Cage is set to star in the martial arts sci-fi action film called Jiu Jitsu, which is based on the comic book of the same name. I have no idea if we will get to see Cage engage in a martial arts fight, but I certainly hope that we do!
Jiu Jitsu centers on “an ancient order of expert Jiu Jitsu fighters facing fearsome alien invaders in a battle for Earth every six years. Cage’s character and his team of Jiu Jitsu fighters band together with Moussi’s character to defeat the Brax.”
Dimitri Logothetis (Kickboxer: Vengeance, Kickboxer: Retaliation) is producing and directing the film from a script that he wrote with Jim McGrath. The movie will also star Alain Moussi, who you might know from the Kickboxer film franchise.
They are looking to bring in a team of world class martial artists, stunt men to bring this movie to life and it’s said that it will “satisfy the millions of martial arts and science fiction lovers across the globe.”
This sounds like it could end up being a pretty radical film project, especially with Cage on board to bring some insanity to it.
