Has Dolph Lundgren Found A New Fresh Face For THE EXPENDABLES?

Dolph Lundgren was spotted working out in a "Hero In Training" session with a new fresh actor who definitely seems to fit the bill for The Expendables action film franchise. Could he be the next co-star?

Expendables Star and legendary action hero Dolph Lundgren trained with former WWE Pro Wrestler turned actor Shad Gaspard In a “Hero in Training” work out session at Gold’s Gym Venice. Gaspard tweeted saying



“For the last 7 months I've been training to become a Superhero & today I got to chill with my hero Dolph Lundgren @Dolph_fans at the Mecca Gold’s Venice #HeroInTraining”


Gaspard left professional wrestling two years ago to begin perusing a carrier as an actor full time, after missing out on several roles because of his WWE schedule. Since then he has become an accomplished Shakespearean theater & sitcom television actor.

At 6’5” with the size, look, and fighting ability similar to Lundgren, Gaspard could be an interesting new addition to the action film franchise. Could this be the next young fresh face talent to join The Expendables?

The Expendables 3 will likely shoot in September, as it doesn't have an official release date yet, but is expected for summer 2014 release.

@MrMxyzptlk Yeah the guy who does Shakespeare has poor acting skills. They should cast Shad for Luke Cage or GOTG as Drax dude has skills + look

Yeah, not a WWE fan myself so first time hearing of this guy. But if he can act, I DEF think he's GREAT to be considered playing Luke Cage!

Just because someone writes that someone does shakespeare does not mean:

1)Its true.
2)He played any significant part in any significant production.
3)He plays it well.

Anybody can be an actor.
