I like it but only because Dolph looks great in this pic and was in amazing shape when it was taken. He kind of looks like an old version of Steve Cook.

There are natural tricks to make the body look more ripped on photos and movies other than photoshop, like not drinking water for a short while before the shoot etc...

You should read this rare in-depth workout interview we did last year:
http://www.etreacteur.fr/dolph-lundgren ... w-english/
What about the water thing? For Red Scorpion, you cut down on water a lot in order to get ripped. Can we do that?

Well, if you have to do a scene with your shirt off and it’s going to be immortalized forever on the big screen, you might as well suffer a bit! (laughs) In that case, three or four days before the scene you start drinking less water and do training where you sweat, going to the sauna, that kind of thing. Instead of drinking water you can drink diet coke or coffee, which is diuretic so you lose more water. That way you lose the water between your muscles and your skin, so your muscles get more defined. But you don’t want to do it for too long, maybe about a week, otherwise you’ll get sick afterwards. [Note: A doctor’s advice is strongly recommended before attempting this.]

The film should start shooting today (or sometimes this week at least) according to imdb.

The date has been there for a while, enough time for it to possibly be rescheduled again so we'll see...

Hum... Archstone Distribution is still presenting it at the upcoming AFM market starting next week, so they may keep it on hold in case they lock the financing if that what it's about...?

If they could make this something like Ash Vs Evil Dead it could be really cool.

Mendez seems to be quite succesful at what he does, but a lot of it will depend on he time and the means he's given, so for instance we'll have a problem if not allowed enough blood squibs and such (which was the case on THE MINION to quote a similar project with horror elements initially)...
