Movie tough-guy Sylvester Stallone is nursing an injured hand - he damaged his thumb practicing fight scenes for his new action film The Expendables.

Stallone has recruited an all-star cast of Hollywood hardmen - including Jet Li, Mickey Rourke and Jason Statham - to star in the upcoming project, about a group of mercenaries who set out to overthrow a dictator.

But the 62-year-old, who will also direct the movie, is already suffering after rehearsing his dangerous stunts - but insists the injury will not delay filming.

A spokesperson for the star tells WENN, "Mr. Stallone injured his hand practising realistic fighting for his upcoming film The Expendables. The injury was to his thumb (but) the production will be on location in Brazil later this month and then New Orleans."

Haha brutal smooth hispanic muscle genetics.

This movie sound absolutely retarded. Jason Statham? His past few movies were retarded. Mickey Rourke? Come on he's old and played out. Definitely not an action star. The guy should have hired some of the characters from Tears of the Sun aka Johnny Messner and Cole Hauser to play tough guys.

Arnold is in this...if we can get Chuck Norris, Carl Weathers, Steven Seagal and Van Damn I think we might have the perfect movie. That much awesomeness could destroy the universe as we know...think about it...
