The Extendables- Good Cast!
Discussion
Just looking at Stallones movie history after deciding to watch Rocky IV earlier. Came across "The Extendables" Not due till next year but have a look at the cast http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1320253/
The plot- A team of mercenaries head to South America on a mission to overthrow a dictator.
Sounds a bit like Rambo. Looking forward to this already.

Just checked the cast again for the expendables and Arnie's now in. Rumour is that it's just a cameo as himself but it's better than nothing. http://www.guardian.co.uk/film/filmblog/2009/feb/1...
Who next? Jean Claude Van Damme?
Really can't wait for this movie now.

Is it just me, or does this film sound really exciting?
As a young male, I loved the Kickboxer and Predator type films, double hard bds fighting anything and everything for not a lot of reason.
We're talking Stallone, Statham, Rourke, Lundgren, Willis, Schwarzanegger etc...
Fingers crossed for an epic action movie.

I was reading that his initial cast was the the likes of Arnie, Willis, Van-Damme etc.
Arnie's making a cameo, so is Willis. All three have planned to be in the same scene together.
Van Damme originally said yes to Sly but then backed out saying after JVD he's taking his career in a different direction.
The current cast looks just as good. An nobody mention the story, no body cares, as long as it contains lots of one-liners, explosions and fights then its OK in my book
Roll on Rambo 5 (which his next planned movie)
