Desert Heat (2025) marks the return of legendary action star Jean-Claude Van Damme in a completely reimagined reboot, inspired by the 1999 film of the same name.
In this remake, Van Damme plays Eddie Lomax, a reclusive veteran, physically and emotionally scarred by the horrors of war. Wandering through a forgotten desert town in search of peace—or death—Eddie accidentally becomes embroiled in a violent dispute between criminal gangs fighting for control of the territory.
Brutally beaten and left for dead in the desert, Eddie reemerges with a single purpose: revenge. With lethal combat skills, he begins eliminating his enemies one by one, while uncovering an even darker conspiracy that threatens the entire community.
With spectacular action sequences, intense confrontations, and Van Damme’s signature cold yet powerful style, Desert Heat (2025) promises to be an explosive update of an action classic. Its release is scheduled for late 2025.
