Steven Seagal- confirmed
Wesley Snipes- confirmed when he leaves prison
Clint Eastwood- in progress to be confirmed
Jackie Chan - in progress
Harrison Ford- in progress
And....Van Damme is returning as well playing Claude Vilian...the brother.... ::)
The Expendables franchise is a fun one to sit and speculate about. There are so many classic action icons that the series can still bring in, and the sequels might keep coming for a very long time. That's Sylvester Stallone's plan anyway. As long as people want to keep watching them, he's up for making them. And The Expendables 3 was in the planning stages well before The Expendables 2 even opened to buffo box office this past August.
We keep hearing that the next film is shooting soon. We recently caught up with one of the franchise's many stars, Dolph Lundgren, and he confirms that The Expendables 3 will likely shoot in September of this year for a 2014 debut date. He also confirms that Nicolas Cage, Jackie Chan, and Wesley Snipes are actively being sought to appear in the sequel. Though, he says that no one has officially signed on the dotted line just yet.
First, though, Dolph Lundgren himself has to shoot an entire season of an upcoming TVseries before he can get back to the The Expendables 3 set.
Here is his response when we tell him we've heard rumors that The Expendables 3 is expected to shoot soon.
"No, I don't think it will be until this fall. That is what I have heard. I am doing this other thing. I have this TV series, it's called Rescue 3. Its an action series. We are rescuing people...Or killing them, which is the case here today...I play the leader of this unit in California that saves people. We use choppers, and life guards. The coast guard...I have to do that first. That takes six or seven months out of this year. I will be done in September. From what I understand, they won't even have The Expendables 3 ready until the fall. To go. It may work out that I can do both this year."
Is the script ready?
"It isn't. I haven't seen it. I know they are working on it, but I haven't seen anything. I'll find out what it is in a couple of months."
Dolph Lundgren also talked about collaborating on the screenplay with Sylvester Stallone, noting that the story is usually the least of his concerns.
"I let him go at it first. He kind of knows me creatively, and personally, because we've worked together quite a bit. So I will usually read the script, and then I will add a few comments about this or that. He knows all of the actors that are in the piece, and there are so many characters involved. They all want to be involved, and everyone wants to have a little something special to do. So, he tries to satisfy that. He's done a great job so far. And I trust him. I usually add a few comments, and he is open to that. Yeah, if everything works out...All these other variables...Then I am not that worried about the script, really."
Lastly, he commented about the recent casting rumors that we've heard.
"I don't know anything for sure. I know...I have heard that they do want Wesley Snipes. They want Jackie Chan. Nicolas Cage, I have heard too. But we don't know want is going on just yet. All of those are pretty great names. They are good actors, and I think the fans would love to see them in there, with the rest of us, for sure. Yeah."
The Expendables 3 is in development and stars Nicolas Cage, Sylvester Stallone, Jason Statham.

Oh my god, people guessed it! They threw out the stupidest idea how Van Damme could reprise his role and it came true. ;D
What about Schwarzenegger though?

Wow! I hope all of them join the cast for No. 3!

Van Damme was the only one who came through in part 2, he was a head above everyone and his role was near perfect. Everyone else was a cheap knock off version of themselves.

part one was mild garbage

I'm a fan. I'll watch it.

Part 2 didn't have Mickey Rourke putting me to sleep with his sermonizing. Cripes, I swear I fell asleep only to wake up to his pipe-smoking nonsense, like, 3 times. Where was the editor on this flick? ;D

I thought Van Damme was great! Good seeing him back in action throwing slo mo roundhouses! Brought me back to my younger days!

You want a challenge? Walk through the Tate, or read some Camus. Shitting on Stallone for artlessness is like looking toward political figures for probity. ;D

As a long time Stallone fan, I hate to say it, but I agree.
-
Van Damme was outstanding in E2. Memorable performance and hopefully a comeback for him.
I would actually have liked if he kicked Stallones ass with a spin kick there in the end, but... Sylvester has to be the hero in his own movies of course, so it goes.
-
Garbage. But I'll download it.

Thats another thing.... the way stallone writes his movies that he is the man and never dies and is so badass, makes me laugh.... a lot of underlying narcissism....

Saw "Bullet to the Head" yesterday.. I liked it..

Exactly. Come to think of it, Stallone is even worse than Mel Gibson with directing and starring, control freaks ;D

With 4" lifts. Stallone was barely 5'9 in his prime.

I opened this thread thinking it was a anouncement that Venom Vince Versace was making a cameo in the movie.
I could only imagine the photoshops
-

Hehe, VVV would be a fine addition to the cast with his repertoire of MA skills.

The best part is watching the 5 foot 7 stallone making fun of the 5 foot 5 jet li for being short.

Stallone is so macho that after 9 11 he refured to fly for ages because he was scared of terrorists. :o

Jesus h Christ. How can you like that piece ofshit movie? Do you mean you like it for its comedic effect?
-
Imagine a Seagal/VanDamme showdown? Really looking forward to 3.
Seagal FTW.
-
Ironically Dolph Lundgren is pretty successful. I didn't realize how many DVD movies he makes and he nets about $1-$5 milllion for each one. He does a lot of them. Most are just europe distribution.

Lundgren is a MIT graduate and a legit Karate black belt, as well as a former rock drummer. The guy operates at a genius level and still pulls the young ladies.:)
SPEAKS OR SPOKE 4 LANGUAGES.DATED GRACE JONES THAT'S SUFFERING IN ITSELF NO BAD SCRIPT CAN TOP THAT..

Don't be ridiculous, 6'10 (atleast).

What about Mr Tom Cruise as the bad guy? He would be a little like Eric Roberts in the first one.

haha.. more than likely. they have the potential to go on forever ::)
didn't think the first one was that great to be honest.. second was much better with van damme totally stealing the show (hope he's back for this instalment). norris was a bit of a let down (forgive me, chuck) and arnold seemed only to be there to get as many of his catchphrases in as possible along with bruce willis who was also dissapointing.
i imagine it must be a right cunt for sly having to work so many shitty fucking catchphrases into the script though.. does sly even have a catchphrase of his own ???
-
Any chance they have a fourth, and somehow bring Van Damme back from the dead, and incorporate Steven Segal? It's funny, these are the movies we dreamed about in the third grade, and these dudes wouldn't have thought about it, now they're all trying to cash in on generation nothingness' nostalgia.

Oh, goody.

Quite the business model by Sly
And no telling how far this will go.
How long until Johnny Bravo stars in the Expendables 15?
