"SAF3" (various directors, 2013-2014, TV series)

[bomaz]

He played in Gi Joe movie and made some voices for superhero cartoons.

Next to JCVD's upcoming TV series with Fashion TV (French cable) DUBAI FORCE aka LUXURY MEETS JUSTICE, RESCUE 3 doesn't sound like such a bad move after all...

[shooby]

He's also have his serie ?

[Jox]

"Dubai Force, Where Luxury Meets Justice"...

It's not done yet, but that's what he's been promoting in Cannes (as his company is co-producing), but it doesn't have big TV networks attached to show it:

[shooby]

OK. And I just go in imdb ... nothing about rescue3 !

[Jox]

Then go to dolphlundgren.com or DL's FB, it just got updated: it starts in July in Cape Town, South Africa for 2 or 3 months (before possibly EX3 if they really start shooting as planned in the fall).

[Mosquito]

Whatever happens... if THIS prevents him from being in EX3 I'll kill the producer.

[Jox]

Well they're working it out so that it doesn't, hence the 2-3 months shoot to begin with instead of 5-6 months in one go as it was planned initially.

[shooby]

And the rest of the cast or other details, why don't you have it ?

[Jox]

Maybe because I can't tell you, maybe because these details are not even locked yet (casting for supporting roles is rarely over before the last few weeks of pre-production), maybe because I'm not told everything, maybe because I don't have the time to ask everything either when I speak with D...

Exec producer Chris Philip talks the financing model for RESCUE 3 and how the series first started as another series, POINT DUME which solely about lifeguards like BAYWATCH...

Seems to have been first developed as POINT DUME:

Sounds like they have an ok budget to work with

It's TV, they usually have more money than in the movies and it's one of the reasons it's getting made...

[Jox]

BTW chances are main creator/producer Gregory J. Bonnan will direct a lot of episodes given his track record on his previous TV series like BAYWATCH or SHE SPIES (with Natasha Henstridge)... He already directed the pitch promo video himself.

Can't say I am instilled with confidence about this one, no matter how much good news we hear - good location, decent budget. I just keep thinking the Baywatch inspiration will result in something woefully cheesy. Look at Walker, Texas Ranger - long running but so cheesy and some episodes are unwatchable. True Justice - both cheesy and cheap as hell and basically garbage. Luxury Meets Justice - I ain't sayin' a word about this one ha. Hope I am wrong though as TV is always good exposure. Look what it did for Keifer.
