Published at:  Mar 12, 2009 1:04:55 PM CDT


Merrick here...


The mighty Stallone continues to pull together one of the badassier casts ever assembled for a film.

Whedonverse alum Charisma Carpenter has recently joined THE EXPENDABLES, along with WWE's "Stone Cold" Steve Austin - per THIS reference in Variety.

Chrisma and Steve join already cast Stallone, Statham, Dolph Lundgren, Randy Couture, Jet Li, Forest Whitaker, Mickey Rourke, and more.

Yowza!

    The Condemned = over the top ridiculous badassery

    by turketron

    Any action movie fan who wrote this movie off should give it a rent/download/whatever. It had a lot of stuff that reminded me of 80's/early 90's action movies. The villain was evil as shit... best scene is when he turns his machine gun on the room full of his workers. He got a fitting boss-death in the end too.

    I guess Austin could be good in a Jesse Ventura PREDATOR-style role where he gets a minigun or a .50 cal and then spits chaw all over the place.


    I like Charisma Carpenter but I have no idea what she brings to the table other than some estrogen, and I'm not convinced this film should have any. Is she the dictator's lady or what?


    Stallone, please let us know the characters they're playing and what caught your eye about them.

    So far it has two, TWO, 80's action stars. The rest are either late 90's/2000's action stars, dramatic actors, or pro athletes. Which is fine... but don't pretend it's a reunion of 80's action cinema.

    by rogueleader66

    I remember seeing Al in just about every 80's action movie, he was the henchman for EVERYONE. To me he is first and foremost Endo from the first Lethal Weapon, but in the 80's/Early 90's, it just was not an action movie unless you had Al as a henchman. Lethal Weapon, Action Jackson, I Come In Peace (I HATE the name change of that movie to Dark Angel), Death Warrant, The Perfect Weapon, Rapid Fire. Oh and of course as Genghis Khan in Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure. I always wondered what kind of a living he made from doing all the bit roles he got.

    So you can take out Whitaker. Roberts is borderline because he did both dramas and cheesey action movies (Best of the Best in 1989). Rourke wasn't an action star, but did do 80s thrillers. Sly, Ahhhhrnold, and Ludgren are definitely 80s Action stars (I use the term star loosely with Dolph though). So it is 4 80s action stars. Still more than your 2. Even if you take out Roberts.

    and don't pretend that isn't true. As awesome as all this shit sounds, no matter how good the script is (which, lets be honest, its not gonna be Dickens or anything) some of these guys just straight up can't act. Others, such as Forest Whitaker, sure as hell can in the right movie, but in the wrong one...have you seen him in Street Kings or Vantage Point...yikes. I'm just saying, I don't care how badass it is if Dolph Lundgren and Stone Cold have to actually do some acting. It just won't work.

I'm trying to temper my expectations on this, honestly - I really thought Rambo was great (and the best action flick for that year); so even with this cast I hope it can hold a candle to that. Don't get silly, Sly - remember your Grandma movie.

    This Is Starting To Become A Punchline

    by acquanetta

    First casting news that I don't consider to be a positive. There's just nothing cool about Steve Austin joining the cast. The fact that Stallone had Statham, Dolph, Jet Li, and Mickey Rourke was enough. People would've still considered it an inspired cast, even as they continued to play the "it also needs to have" game. Stallone should've left people wanting more, instead of running the risk of it becoming such a cheap novelty.

    The Ending (Spoiler Alert)

    by azultool

    The entire cast is packed in the world's fastest dune-buggy, jamming through the desert. They are trying to get to the Super-dooper patent machine/nuclear reactor created by Mr. Doom Man (Played by Jimmy Superfly Schnooka) If they don't get there in time, then the patent machine will instantly turn over the copyrights for every catch phrase ever uttered to the nefarious villain. They jump over the last, humongous dune that hurls all of our heroes out of the buggy, and into mid-air. Thank God they all have uzi's, and perfect marksmanship. They all shoot Mr Doom Man at the same time, and he does the slomo bullet dance for about 2 straight minutes. As he falls down, he pushes a big red button labeled "Nuclear Reactor" CLOSEUP: DIGITAL CLOCK READS 5...4...3...2...1. --SHOT OF THE EARTH FROM OUTERSPACE. IT EXPLODES. THE END....?

    No casting overlaps please.

    by gibsonusa returns

    Awesome ideas! But some people are suggesting casting roles that have already been filled imo.

    No Chow Yun Fat, as the Hong Kong action role has been filled by Jet.

    No Hulk Hogan, as the WWE wrestler role has been filled by Steve Austin.

    No Kimbo Slice, as awesome as that would be, because Couture is already in it as the MMA guy and overlap might take away from both guys.

    Instead let's complete the circle of asskickery and look as what is missing. In my opinion, this is what may be missing...
    NFL STAR: The National Football League needs to be represented, don't you think? How about a Lawrence Taylor up in there? Maybe a Michael Irvin?

    A ROCK STAR: If not performing a part, then some Metallica/g&r/ACDC in the soundtrack.
    A HUMMER: The vehicle of asskicker choice...Austin mowing down bad guys going crazy in a big ass Hummer while laughing...80's defiance in the age of the Prius.

    A TERMINATOR: Robert Patrick filling the role. Terminator and Rambo share the screen.

    Get the man who was killed by a Terminator, an Alien and a Preda

    And is married to three women in his TV show: Bill Paxton. He has to say "game over, dude" as well.

    There, that completes the Alien and Robo-copp representation.

    What happened to Robert Knepper & Scott Adkins?

    by the_genteel_gentile

    They've been removed from the cast list on IMDB. I hope they are in it still (if they ever truely were). Knepper is like Lance Hendricksons slimier younger brother, and Scott Adkins can sure put the heat on a fight scene.

    by toby_fn_wong

    Mark Dacascos is a legit action star. If you have never seen the movie Drive (1997) you have to see what I am talking about. Dacascos should also be cast for The Expendables. He deserves a break without Wire Fu.

    by darthbakpao

    ... literally, because it is not possible to contain such sheer awesomenesses of Stallone, Schwarzenegger, Jet Li, Statham, Mickey Rourke in one movie. If they manage to get Mel Gibson, then the whole universe will explode and begins the second big bang of creation

    No more Wrestlers please - I hesitate to use the word "credibility" for a film like this, but filling it with WWE types won't help. Action stars, fine - put THEM in, but not wrestlers. Christ, did anyone see The Condemned?! Any film where Vinnie Jones is the best thing about it is just fucked.
