Some very big names have been mentioned recently as very likely to shoot in Bulgaria soon, the likes of Bruce Willis and Silvester Stallone. Is there any development on that?
Yes, we are definitely going to do that project. It is going to be a sequel the "The Expendables". The shooting is going to take place the second week of September. The movie is on, definitely. It will be a very good thing for Bulgaria, since there are some very big stars coming.
Would you disclose some of the names coming for sure?
Sylvester Stallone, Jason Statham, John Travolta, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Chuck Norris, Jean-Claude Van Damme, Dolph Lundgren, Mickey Rourke...who else? Of course, Bruce Willis. The director is Simon West, who is also a name. He is already here and has started working on the film. I believe the sequel will be better than the first movie.
Oh my lord! What a cast! This is like a dream come true. First off, I love Van Damme, well the early movies, after
Timecop it's pretty much downhill. Last we knew Jean-Claude was holding out til he knew for sure that Steven Segal was not going to be in the project.
Secondly we got Chuck Norris! Oh my god. Let the jokes begin. I can't even begin to tell you how much I've seen Chuck's
Delta Force. It's my go to movie when I feel like being patriotic. I thought the pairing of Norris and Bruce Lee in
Way of the Dragon was epic, but this trumps that.
And lastly we have Travolta...nifty.
I guess we can expect plenty of bad one liners and lots of pointless flexing, but oh baby I'm on board for this one. This has to be the must see movie of the year.
