Sylvester Stallone is currently hard at work penning the screenplay for The Expendables 3. The legendary actor took to Twitter last night to not only reveal that, but to also share his thoughts on what new elements he plans on bringing to the third instalment in the popular franchise.










The Expendables 2 was a fair bit different to the first movie and it sounds as if this next one will be just as distinct in terms of tone and character. Are you looking forward to seeing what Sly comes up with? Who else should join the cast? Be sure to sound off with your thoughts in the usual place!

@LEVIKUTZ yeah Nic Cage should be in every movie. He definitely has to be in Hellboy 3 thats probably the only way that movies going to happen.

u guys aren't serious about that whole nic cage thing right ?
in the words of sean penn "[1999] Nic Cage [Nicolas Cage] is no longer an actor. He's more like a performer"

I am campaigning for Mel Gibson he is the only dude missing from that action hero area or at least Danny Glover

Too bad the humor isnt funny. If its meant to be the over the top sarcastic humor, get some good comedy writers don't try and write yourself Sly. Jackie Chan Terry Crews and Willis are the only thing going for this movie that can provide that. Its prob best to leave the humor to them.

Just sayin

People may rank on Cage but he has the ability to do an action film and come off humorous. So does Gibson and Kurt Russell.

Is Wesley Snipes out of prison yet? Also yes to Jackie Chan. Idk what young woman they could have but Michelle from Crouching Tiger, i forget her, would make a good fighter. She isnt young but would still be cool. Idk who could play the computer hacker, probably anyone

No wonder this so-called franchise lacks everything necessary for a competent movie. Stallone's writing them. Ugh, I knew 5th graders with better writing chops than half of Hollywood, much less Stallone. And he wonders why the film receives the criticism it does..

Cage is an amazing and brilliant actor.
He's just deliberately trolling around for Fun these days.

He's also directed a lot of them also. Im not a big fan of his but I did like the newest Rocky that came out a while back..

I think EX3 need some Wolverine..I mean High Jackman.

What about Tony Jaa!? He could flip off some elephants and kick the shit out of everything that walks.

For giggles, lets throw in Vin Diesel, he's been good in "A Man Apart", "Find me guilty", and the "Riddick" movies. Despite the cheese factor of the Fast and Furious movies he still makes it pretty enjoyable.

I'll cast a serious vote for Nic Cage. A lot of people give him shit, but those people most likely saw the "Wicker Man" and "Drive Angry" and said "I know everything there is to know about Nic Cages career now he can't act blah blah blah".

Kurt Russell, Mel Gibson, Carl Weathers and Nic Cage as the crazy villain. EX4, John Travolta/ Thomas Jane?

I would love to see the ladies of action, like Sigourney Weaver and Linda Hamilton, if they got back in shape that is. I know that won't happen, maybe a little cameo would be nice or something like that.

Lose the (melo) drama and up the comedy, and I'm in. The second movie embraced the cheesiness of Stallone's past films and that's what made it better than the first. The third movie should follow the same path.

anyone that thinks Nic Cage is a respectable actor needs to get their head checked. Or see Captain Corelli's Mandolin.


and all his other movies.

While they are at it they should bring in Keanu Reeves.

He could be all like "woah........"

You know, because he knows kung fu and stuff.

when it comes to EXPENDABLES 3 here is all the update you'll need, it's going to be sub-literate garbage and a total waste of celluloid. Oh! and there'll be lots of Geritol at craft services.

I could see Clint Eastwood use the old bulletproof vest gag in Expendables 3, then he could say, "Works everytime!"
Deadshot
Deadshot - 3/13/2013, 10:08 AM
Expendables 2 had far too much jokes, and EVERYONE thought the Billy the kid character looked out of place. Now Stallone wants more of these young guys?!? The whole appeal of the franchise is seeing old guys kick ass.
