Robert Rodriguez has a knack  for getting A-list celebs to work on his low budget pics.  Bruce Willis worked with him on Planet Terror while Depp was in Once Upon A Time In Mexico.  For Rodriguez’s next flick, Machete, he got the biggest celeb of all time: Steven Seagal!

Seagal is so famous that most of his movies have been straight to video the past ten years.  They all have similar titles, like:

Driven To Kill

Out For A Kill

Today You Die

There’s one movie too where he played a zombie hunter and he walked around the city in slo-mo with his friends.  I forgot the name of that movie but that was pure comedy.

Below is the poster from Machete with Seagal from Bloody Disgusting.  Rodriguez should do wonders with Seagal’s acting talent and his fight scene should be awesome.  I wonder if he’ll die in the movie, Seagal seems invincible in his other movies.

Can’t get enough of Seagal? Well..check out this vid as he trains UFC middleweight champ Anderson Silva.

It seems like Silva really respects Seagal.  That would be cool if Anderson uses Aikido moves on his next opponent, Chael Sonnen.
