Wesley Snipes and Jean Claude Van-Damme are teaming up together for "The Hard Corps."

Van Damme will play a war veteran named Patrick Sauvage, who has just spent the last three years fighting in Afghanistan and Iraq. Sauvage is hired to be a bodyguard to a former World Heavyweight Boxing champion, played by Snipes, who needs protection after running into trouble with a major rap mogul. Van Damme must assemble a team of combat vets to protect the boxer. While Sauvage is guarding the boxer and his family, interpersonal issues arise when the boxer suspects Sauvage is the object of a crush by his sister.

Filming is expected to take place in British Columbia and Romania.
