The Expendables 4 is officially happening with Sylvester Stallone returning for the fourth flick in the franchise that marks the first film in seven years.
Details include the action fighting film will reunite Stallone with Jason Statham, Dolph Lundgren, and Randy Couture.
Newcomers include Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson, Megan Fox, and Tony Jaa.
Stuntman-turned-helmer Scott Waugh is directing who is known for Need For Speed.
It’s said The Expendables 4 will see the focus shift more on Jason Statham instead of Sylvester Stallone, with Megan Fox as the female lead and similar to the previous movies will follow a group of veteran mercenaries.
Sylvester Stallone actually first confirmed The Expendables 4 in an Instagram post back in July.
“Just finished designing the new ring for EXPENDABLE 4. It’s a little heavy, but it’ll definitely put some muscles on your fingertips,” said Sly.

“Popcorn entertainment is guaranteed,” said Millennium president Jeffrey Greenstein, noting that the new additions to the roll call were meant to “keep it fresh and fun.”
