Jason Statham to Lead Expendables 4
If you are a fan of action movies, then you probably have heard of the Expendables series. It is a film series that features an ensemble cast, and it was created by David Callaham. The series has been made into additional media, such as video games, television shows, and other movies.
Jason Statham could bring the franchise up to date
If Sylvester Stallone leaves the “Expendables” franchise, Jason Statham could be the one to take it to the next level. The actor, who has appeared in a number of fast-paced action films, will lead the fourth film in the series, which is slated to be released in October 2021.
The fourth installment of the series will feature a variety of stars. Besides Statham, the movie will also feature Megan Fox and Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson. Other actors include Dolph Lundgren, Iko Uwais, Tony Jaa and Levy Tran.
In addition to reviving a number of classic action stars, Stallone is also bringing in some fresh faces. Jason Statham has been rumored to be the next Rocky, and there is a possibility that he will play the role in future installments.
Mel Gibson
Mel Gibson is one of the most recognizable action actors of all time. The actor and filmmaker is best known for the Mad Max franchise and the Lethal Weapon series. His career began in Peekskill, New York and he eventually moved to Australia where he studied at the Australian National Institute of Dramatic Art.
In the Expendables franchise, Stallone has brought together an all-star cast to deliver memorable action scenes. He has recruited the likes of Arnold Schwarzenegger, Dolph Lundgren, Jet Li, Bruce Willis, and more. And he’s added new, younger faces to the cast.
The Expendables 3 has been a great hit. The movie is set two years after the events of the previous film, and it brought back several of the franchise’s regulars. But this time, the cast is going up against a villain. This time, the film centers around the arms dealer Conrad Stonebanks.
Jean-Claude Van Damme
When Sylvester Stallone was making The Expendables 2, he offered Jean-Claude Van Damme a role. The Belgian martial artist accepted and acted as a terrorist leader named Jean Vilain. His character died in the end. Afterwards, fans wondered if Claude Vilain would be returning in the next installment of the series.
During an interview with the Hollywood Reporter, Jean-Claude Van Damme responded to the question. He said that he is not slowing down. Rather, he wants to return in the fourth installment of the Expendables franchise.
The Expendables franchise is an ensemble action movie series. It has featured action icons like Jet Li, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Mickey Rourke, Terry Crews and Dolph Lundgren. Although the movie series is still in its infancy, it has already made millions of dollars.
Arnold Schwarzenegger
Expendables 4 is a film about a group of mercenary fighters who are out to stop a powerful arms dealer. It will be directed by Scott Waugh, who also wrote the screenplay. The movie will feature familiar faces along with new ones.
Expendables has been one of the most popular franchises since Lionsgate first announced it in 2010. Although a few of the key cast members left the project, they still have plenty of star power to spare.
Stallone and Schwarzenegger began the series as rivals, but their relationship has developed into a close friendship. Their banter is fun and playful. They have even been referred to as a team.
Sylvester Stallone
It’s no secret that Sylvester Stallone is an action legend. In fact, his latest ventures, including a role in Rowan Athale’s sci-fi pic Little America and a stint in the box office sensation The Equalizer with Mark Wahlberg, have given him plenty of opportunities to demonstrate his prowess. But it appears as though Stallone’s Expendables franchise may be coming to an end.
After making a number of appearances in the Expendables series over the past decade, Stallone has officially announced his departure from the franchise. His representative confirmed with EW that Stallone will be leaving the series.
In what is likely his last action film, Stallone is bringing back some old faces as well as some new ones. Among the names we’ve learned about so far are Jason Statham, Dolph Lundgren, Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson, and Megan Fox.
Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson
Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson is set to play a leading role in the new Expendables film. He is also a producer on the project.
50 Cent started his career as a rapper before moving on to acting. His first movie was called Get Rich or Die Tryin’ and was based on his early life. He worked on dozens of music videos before landing a role in a crime thriller.
After a decade of success in the music industry, 50 Cent decided to move into the Hollywood world. He has made a name for himself as a talented actor and producer. He has appeared in a number of films and TV shows.
