Van Damme and Jason almost came to blows in Mexico. The actors began to rebuke each other for an old dispute of almost more than 20 years. Both actors fell into a discussion that was recorded by one of those present. Both celebrities have not had a good relationship since 1998, and at the premiere of the movie ‘Fighter Portraits’, Jason in 1995, challenged Van Damme to a martial arts fight since then, there has been no kind of celebrity reconciliation
In the year 2017 Jason David Frank and Jean Claude Van Damme almost grabbed fists again at the premiere of the ‘Power Rangers’ movie. At the time Van Damme contacted Jason to meet and make the passes but it was not to be as Bandam insisted that he deserved an apology for previous conflicts and Jason’s position was not as expected. At the time he had to enter the security personnel to prevent a war from arising between them.
The Power Ranger claimed that it was some kind of setup since there were cameras filming the meeting and that Van Damme apologized to him for that and for a fight to which he challenged him in 2010.
Do you remember when in 2017 Jason David Frank and Jean Claude Van Damme almost grabbed pineapples at a Comic Con?
The most bizarre thing is that Van Damme was with cameras. I put everything together to anger JDF and film it 🤦♂️ pic.twitter.com/1JpuZlbTVr—Juanito Say (@JuanitoSay) March 22, 2020
