Steven Seagal is like the white whale of action stars, in that he looks like a fat white whale, and it's rare to see him actually fighting. He also seems to be wearing a fake beard and those dumb orange sunglasses in every movie of his for the last decade. Seriously, what's up with those glasses?
Anyway, Seagal is shooting a new action/martial arts film in Thailand called ATTRITION about a Spec Ops leader (Seagal, natch) who must track down and save a girl with mystical powers. However, this one actually seems to have some money behind it, and *gasp* he looks like he might actually move his arms! Maybe fight even! Here are some set pics from the studio:
I mean, I'll have to wait and see a trailer, but this does seem a step up from Seagal's normal fare, even if that's a low bar to overcome (and it's still debatable if it does). I mean, he's still wearing those shitty glasses…
Meanwhile, ATTRITION will be released later this year.
