Here’s the Jean Claude Van Johnson trailer in all its glory:
This is just an intro to where we find Jean-Claude in this series, grooming himself with his own branded beauty product, living in a house stocked with strawberry Pop-Tarts, using a Segway to get the day’s issue of Variety. It’s all very sad, but there’s an uptick in his life just around the corner. Here’s the premise of the show:
It’s great to see an actor like Jean-Claude Van Damme embracing his status as an actor for comedy. It’ll be interesting to see what other actors cameo as operatives who are working in Hollywood undercover. There’s plenty of other action stars with struggling careers who would be great in a role like this, especially if they come to blows with Jean-Claude Van Damme.
Jean-Claude Van Damme comes out of retirement to put on once again the mantle of his alter-ego, undercover private contractor Jean-Claude Van Johnson. “Johnson’s” cover as the lead role in a re-imagined action film version of “Huckleberry Finn” lands him right back in the midst of the danger he secretly always craves–but most importantly, back in the orbit of Vanessa, his fellow operative and the woman he loves.
