1. Yeah, that’s one way to not be in a movie.

2. Or, just maybe, Van Damme is such a shit actor that he’s well below the bar for a film like Fast & Furious. /s

   Edit: I added the sarcasm indicator to be clearer

3. This just in: Diesel burns down Van Damme, World Flooded with Apathy

4. No controversy here. They just couldn’t integrate his [excellent dancing skills](https://youtu.be/h1mqHPjvHVU) into the script.

5. I hate all these new action films but I almost watched “The Expendables 2” just because of Van Damme

6. He’s been a producer since the 4th film, so he gets some say in those decisions.

7. Yes, that’s sometimes the reason why actors aren’t picked:The producer doesn’t want them. Very good Jean-Claude.

8. Then he didn’t miss out
