David Belle is famous the world over for founding the art of parkour, aka freerunning, aka that awesome kind of action sequence popularized by District B13 which immediately popped up in American movies like Casino Royale and The Bourne Ultimatum. Now the original French classic has been remade by original producer Luc Besson and director Camille Delamarre as Brick Mansions, starring David Belle, The RZA, and the late Paul Walker in his final completed motion picture.
How does it compare to the original? Check out this CraveOnline Exclusive clip from the opening of Brick Mansions to see for yourself. David Belle’s still a freerunning maniac in a scene that should be familiar to fans of District B13.
Brick Mansions opens in theaters April 25, 2014.
