Timebomb is a 1991 sci-fi action film written and directed by Israeli Avi Nesher. Starring Michael Biehn (The Terminator) and Patsy Kensit (Lethal Weapon 2).

Producers originally wanted Jean-Claude Van Damme or Chuck Norris to play Kay, but Nesher saw Biehn as perfect for the role due to his performance in The Abyss. Biehn himself took a pay cut to show his dedication to the film.^{[citation needed]}
