With the newest "The Expendables" releasing in August this year, they have blessed us with some pretty cool looking character posters.

"The Expendables 3" plot details and press release

Lionsgate have put their press release for "The Expendables 3", why are you still reading this? Are you still? Come on dude check the press release!

"Lionsgate and Millennium Films will begin principal photography today on THE EXPENDABLES 3, the third installment of THE EXPENDABLES action-thriller franchise, with production shooting on location in Bulgaria and at Nu Boyana Studios in Sofia.

THE EXPENDABLES 3 will feature Sylvester Stallone, Jason Statham, Jet Li, Dolph Lundgren, Randy Couture, Terry Crews and Arnold Schwarzenegger returning to their roles in the first two films with Wesley Snipes, Antonio Banderas, Mel Gibson and Harrison Ford joining the all-star cast along with Kellan Lutz, MMA star Ronda Rousey, welterweight boxing champion Victor Ortiz and Glen Powell.

Patrick Hughes (RED HILL) will direct the film, with veteran Dan Bradley (The BOURNE franchise; MISSION IMPOSSIBLE: GHOST PROTOCOL, QUANTUM OF SOLACE) directing the second unit. THE EXPENDABLES 3 is written by Creighton Rothenberger & Katrin Benedikt, who previously teamed on OLYMPUS HAS FALLEN, and Sylvester Stallone. Avi Lerner, Kevin King-Templeton, Danny Lerner and Les Weldon are producing THE EXPENDABLES 3. Trevor Short, Boaz Davidson and John Thompson are executive producing. Lionsgate will release THE EXPENDABLES 3 in North America and the UK on August 15, 2014.

In THE EXPENDABLES 3, Barney (Stallone), Christmas (Statham) and the rest of the team comes face-to-face with Conrad Stonebanks (Gibson), who years ago co-founded The Expendables with Barney. Stonebanks subsequently became a ruthless arms trader and someone who Barney was forced to kill… or so he thought. Stonebanks, who eluded death once before, now is making it his mission to end The Expendables — but Barney has other plans. Barney decides that he has to fight old blood with new blood, and brings in a new era of Expendables team members, recruiting individuals who are younger, faster and more tech-savvy. The latest mission becomes a clash of classic old-school style versus high-tech expertise in the Expendables’ most personal battle yet.

The production will be overseen by Lionsgate’s Jason Constantine and Eda Kowan.

The first two installments of THE EXPENDABLES have grossed nearly $600 million in combined global box office."

Harrison Ford joins...

"The Expendables 3" this news made my day!!! Stallone himself broke the news on Twitter and when I seen the Tweet I nearly exploded with excitement, the only downfall that comes with it is that Bruce Willis has dropped out of the film according to the Tweet. 

WILLIS OUT... HARRISON FORD IN !!!! GREAT NEWS !!!!! Been waiting years for this!!!!

Chris Hemsworth talks He-Man rumours

You might remember a while ago I posted about Dolph Lundgren talking about possible actors for the upcoming "He-Man" movie, when asked about Hemsworth being He-Man I believe his words were "Yeah! That's a good idea. I'm onboard." Every few years somebody new seems to be attached to this project, it seems like every time a well build actor is doing well the rumours start to circulate, here is what Hemsworth had to say about the rumour;


"“I can’t play He-Man, it’s pretty much Thor, isn’t it?” he said. 

Hemsworth added that after playing Thor is several movies, it has become difficult for him to get certain roles. As a result, he doesn’t expect to be asked to play He-Man, and probably not any villains. 

“I’d probably have to make more of an effort to get that kind of role,” he explained."

So there it is people, Thor is already He-Man, so what's the point? I can see where he is coming from an I'm guessing you will too. It's good to finally get some closure on the whole Hemsworth He-Man rumour, but it will only be a matter of months possibly a year before somebody else is rumoured to be heading up the movie. 

Trailer "The Expendables 2"

This film looks incredible, nothing better than a testosterone fuelled action fest. How can you go wrong with a film that has John Rambo, John McClane, The Terminator, Wong Fei Hung, Walker Texas Ranger and Ivan Drago ha ha.

"The Expendables 2" character posters

It's hard work trying to get people hyped up over this film, the lack of media released is pretty low. But, it's safe to say that I am still pretty excited about it. These character posters are pretty bad ass, I think they will help pump the testosterone an get you all hyped up for this movie.

"Expendables 2" will be R-Rated!

This is pretty amazing news in my opinion, there was a pretty big uproar when it was announced that film was set to be PG-13.
"After drawing the ire of the Internet for confirming that The Expendables 2 would be PG-13 (apparently in accordance with star Chuck Norris‘ wishes), Sylvester Stallone has backtracked to say that the star-studded action sequel will be getting an R rating after all…
…Since Norris’ objection to the R rating had more to do with cursing than violence, it’s possible that Expendables 2 will try to keep the language clean even while dialling up the action. Or maybe the outcry was such that Stallone’s decided to drop the PG-13 plan altogether. Either way, if you’ve been hoping for a rougher, tougher Expendables 2, it seems your wishes have been granted…"

"The Expendables 2" gallery

Promo pictures for "The Expendables 2" have made their way online, they are not for the feint hearted. These pictures don't just show off the cast we know from "The Expendables", they show us Scott Adkins, Yu Nan, Jean-Claude Van Damme. I can only guess that the JCVD, Adkins and Lundgren pictures are all pre-photoshop, they will look a lot more badass when edited.
