The Expendables

Ätomik's picture

Scheduled to come out in August. I'm posting a link to a "trailer" but I don't think it's official? It looks a bit corny but given the cast I think it may be worth a shot in theatres. This is the first time that Sly, Ahnold, and Bruce Willis have appeared on screen together.
 
Stallone also suffered a hairline fracture of his neck during a fight scene with Steve Austin requiring surgery and a metal plate being installed.

Jean-Claude van Damme was offered a role in the film but turned it down which lead to Lundgren being casted. Steven Seagal was asked to do a cameo but that fell through in negative experiences with the producer. Brittany Murphy was also originally casted but her character was eliminated in re-write. Bruce Willis' role was originally offered to Kurt Russell, who turned it down due to not wanting to be involved in Ensemble acting.
