Jean-Claude Van Damme's Final Action Movie Continues A Strange Trend

Jean-Claude Van Damme's final action movie What's My Name? will continue a weird action movie trend in his career. Van Damme kicked his way to Hollywood fame in the late '80s with low-budget martial arts hits like Bloodsport, Kickboxer, and Cyborg. Van Damme continued as a Hollywood action star throughout the '90s and well into the 21st century, with his trademark flexibility being a staple of his on-screen persona.
After his extended career in action movies, Jean-Claude Van Damme announced his intent to finally retire, with the action film What's My Name? to serve as his swan song. What's My Name? will also include some autobiographical elements from Van Damme's life and career. Because of that, What's My Name? will continue a pattern that Van Damme himself has taken part in repeatedly.
