It used to be that putting Sylvester Stallone in a movie was big enough of a draw. You’d think teaming Sly with other action actors like Jet Lee or Jason Stathem would be more than enough for fans these days. The Expendables is really heating things up, however, but putting all three of those guys together, plus another added face from Stallone’s glory days.
Sly, who also wrote The Expendables, was caught by Review Nation on the red carpet for Transporter 3 where he talked very briefly about his upcoming action combo, which he described as a “homecoming of tough guys.” Along with Lee, Stathem, and Stallone himself, the actor revealed that the studio is trying to get Dolph Lundgren on board with the film. Stallone and Lundgren faced off in Rocky IV, over twenty years ago.
The Expendables features a team of mercenaries sent to overthrow an evil dictator. With Stallone, Lee, Stathem, and Lundgren on board, that dictator better be played by Arnold Schwarzenegger if he’s going to have any chance at surviving.
Check out the video below - Stallone’s interview starts around 2:43.
