This morning, Lionsgate CEO Jon Feltheimer offered an update on the third film in The Expendables series (via Deadline). He confirmed that filming will begin in August, and he also said that Wesley Snipes, Nicolas Cage, Jackie Chan and Milla Jovovich are all in "advanced negotiations" to join the star-studded ensemble. We previously heard Sylvester Stallone hint that Snipes was on board/in talks, and it was previously rumored (though not confirmed) that Chan and Cage were officially signed on. Plus, Stallone said that he wanted a "young Sigourney Weaver"-type character for the threequel. Could this be who Jovovich is in talks to play?

Patrick Hughes (Red Hill) recently signed on to direct The Expendables 3. In addition to the franchise regulars (Stallone, Jason Statham, Dolph Lundgren, etc.), the action threequel will also see the return of Mickey Rourke (who appeared in the first movie but not the second). No release date has been set yet, but a 2014 debut is likely if production goes according to plan. Stay tuned to CBM for more news on The Expendables 3 as we have it.

I don't get all the people hating on this series, its supposed to be big, dumb 80s style action movies series where shit gets blown up, and tons, and tons of mother [frick]ers just die in a glorious barrage of bullets.

They aren't supposed to be a tour de force or the next Dark Knight or Citizen Kane.

Van Damme should return!! He should play the good twin brother of the character he played in the first film. That would be a classic Van Damme!!

Nic Cage is a blight on cinematography. You should all be ashamed for supporting such garbage.

I'm down with the idea of Milla Jovovich, but how about Mary Elizabeth Winstead?
