It's been 26 years since Kickboxer hit theaters back in 1989, but on Monday's Conan Jean-Claude Van Damme proved he's still got some serious moves!

The segment began with host Conan O'Brien playing back the iconic scene in which Van Damme's character shakes his booty and kicks butt. Van Damme, now 54, seemed to thoroughly enjoy seeing the footage of his younger self dancing, doing the splits and fighting off bad guys.

Before recreating those moves on Conan, though, Van Damme let fans know there's a sequel in the works! "By the way, we're going to do a Kickboxer 2 with [Dave] Bautista, GSP [Georges S.-Pierre], [and] Alain Moussi—all good actors," he said. "It's gonna be a cool movie."

"I'll be the first in line," O'Brien promised. "I really will!"

That said, the late-night host needed to know if the "Muscles From Brussels" could really "still dance like that"?

Van Damme's response? "I still got the moves," he said with a smile, moving his shoulders to prove it.

Beau Williams' "Feeling So Good Today" began to play, and with a little prompting from O'Brien, Van Damme was up on his feet! Team Coco even provided a new table of bad boys for Van Damme to set straight—which he did while dancing, naturally.

Once Van Damme had successfully danced the danger away, O'Brien joined him and showed off some moves of his own. 

It was, to say the least, quite a sight to behold! See for yourself in the Conan clip above.
