10 Famous People You Forgot Were In Jean-Claude Van Damme Movies

10. Bill Goldberg- Universal Soldier: The Return (1999)

Goldberg was a legend in WCW. His famous undefeated streak, usually dispatching opponents in minutes, made him a crowd favourite. Goldberg even beat Hulk Hogan to become champion. In WWE he was… something else.

In 1999 though he was Uni-Sol Romeo in Universal Soldier: The Return, which is the fourth of six in the franchise. This addition to the series actually got a cinematic release, unlike ‘Universal Soldier II: Brothers in Arms’ and Universal Soldier III: Unfinished Business’ both coming in 1998. The previous two instalments did not feature Jean-Claude Van Damme, who would rarely appear in sequels.

Although he didn’t play a large part in the film, Goldberg did feature in the music video for the theme song, ‘Crush ‘Em’ by Megadeth. 'Crush 'Em' would also briefly be Goldberg's walk-out music in WCW.

Universal Soldier: The Return was a failure both financially and critically but next to Goldberg’s next movie Ready to Rumble (2000), it’s a masterpiece. Goldberg's performance wasn't going to blow anyone away here, but his intense charisma does elevate the film overall.
