Shadow Man (film)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Shadow Man, is an American action film starring Steven Seagal, which was released in the United States direct-to-video on June 6, 2006. Filming was primarily in Bucharest, Romania.
In Shadows of the Past, Seagal plays Jack Foster, a man who, while on a trip to Bucharest with his daughter, finds that she's been kidnapped, so now he must set out to find her, but what Foster doesn't know is that he is also being followed by intelligence officials the world over, believing he has a deadly virus that could spread throughout the world.
When the project first came about, the title was Shadows on the Sun, and was being written by Bey Logan, writer for several Jackie Chan projects, and also had an entirely different plot. The original story was a period piece with Seagal as an intelligence officer who runs a medical clinic in Japan after World War II. However, by September 2005, Logan was no longer involved, the title was changed to Shadows of the Past, and the script was being penned by Joe Halpin, who has authored several recent Seagal features (Submerged, Into the Sun, Today You Die), and the plot assumed its current form. This has been met with disappointment from some fans, who were excited to see Seagal star in a film that was a departure from the action movies he's done in recent years.
