“I think when people have interviewed Seagal before, they want to get a rise out of him. They want to ask the stupid questions about who’s going to win. Who’s tougher, you or Van Damme or whatever? Probably that brings out a side of him. I wanted to keep it positive and I do with all the guests. I want to celebrate action cinema.”
