Gina Carano Joins Kickboxer Remake

Gina Carano has joined the cast of the Kickboxer remake.  She’ll play a fight promoter in the movie.  Couldn’t they have found a better use for her than that?  Surely this movie is R-rated.  Think of the possibilities.

The “Fast & Furious 6″ star joins Alain Moussi, Dave Bautista, Georges St. Pierre, and Jean-Claude Van Damme (playing the mentor role this time) in John Stockwell’s new take on the martial-arts classic.

Kickboxer follows Kurt Sloane (Moussi), a talented martial artist who travels to Thailand, where he must learn the secrets of the kickboxer to avenge his brother’s death at the hands of Tong Po (Bautista). Carano will play a fight promoter.
