Hi Bryan Here….
Well you knew it was going to happen. The first film made over $100 million in its theatrical run plus tons more on home video sales. And it was a fun movie. I know it was partially written by Sly Stallone, but it had some god awful dialogue. Laughable dialogue and not in a good way. It was almost as it was written by a 13 year old kid. But it definitely was action packed and tons of cool kills and an allright storyline.
Now if you do not know who was in this action packed film, well it basically had every action star imaginable except for a few. The film starred: Sly Stallone, Jet Li, Stone Cold Steve Austin, Randy Couture, Bruce Willis, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Mickey Rourke, Jason Statham, Dolph Lundgren, Terry Crews, Eric Roberts, and more.
Now if you read the above list you would not notice Jean Claude Van Damme’s name nor Stephen Segal’s name.
Well at this weeks Golden Globe ceremonies, Bruce Willis was asked about The Expendables sequel.
He said:
“Apparently it’s going to happen this year,” he said.
When asked if he will be in it — as has been rumored — Bruce confirmed the news.
“As far as I know, barring any unforeseen circumstances, but yeah, I would love to be a part of it,” he said.
Also, Stallone stated on his Twiiter feed that Bruce’s role would be upgraded to a much bigger presence.
Also there are numerous reports that Jean Claude Van Damme will be in the sequel, but not Stephen Segal due to some previous difficulties with the the producer.
Time will tell.
