Jackie Chan talks The Expendables 3 and Rush Hour 4
17 hours ago | Flickeringmyth | See recent Flickeringmyth news »
Just last week, Sylvester Stallone announced a couple of casting additions for The Expendables 3, revealing that Mickey Rourke would reprise the role of Tool from the first movie, as well as confirming that Asian martial arts superstar Jackie Chan would be joining the line-up for the third instalment in the explosive action franchise. Well, it appears that Sly may have jumped the gun slightly, as Jackie Chan has offered an update on his involvement in the film, revealing that there may be a potential scheduling conflict:
"I would love to work with Stallone," said Chan, who spoke to Getty Images at the Cannes Film Festival: "I’m going to meet him and see what happens. I am supposed to be in The Expendables 3 but at the time I am meant to be doing Chinese Zodiac. I cannot promise you anything but let’s see what happens. I would love to do it. »

Sylvester Stallone Hitting Up Steven Seagal For The Expendables 3
20 May 2013 2:03 PM, PDT | We Got This Covered | See recent We Got This Covered news »
I love The Expendables franchise like I love Bruce Willis’s beautiful bald head: with no bounds. What is there not to love about sexagenarians hopped up on steroids blowing stuff up by the sheer force of their masculinity? No, seriously: The Expendables rocks. The Expendables 2 was equally awesome, and of course I have nothing but high hopes for The Expendables 3. If man behind the explosions, Sylvester Stallone, has anything to say about it, we’ll soon be adding one more badass to our badass list.
Stallone recently Tweeted that he’s been speaking to ‘Steven S.’ about The Expendables 3, which Mr. S. is totally into, ‘if the part fits.’ Steven S., in all likelihood, is none other than perhaps the only badass not to get in on the action yet: Steven Seagal. If Seagal joins the cast of The Expendables 3, he’ll be following in »

Sylvester Stallone Talking to Steven Seagal About 'Expendables 3'?
20 May 2013 1:02 PM, PDT | firstshowing.net | See recent FirstShowing.net news »
With director Patrick Hughes confirmed to be at the helm of The Expendables 3, the biggest concern is rounding up all the bad asses to make up the ensemble of action stars kicking ass this time around. Wesley Snipes has been pegged for a role, and recently Stallone further confirmed the involvement of Jackie Chan and return of Mickey Rourke. Now it sounds like another new face might enter the mix. Stallone took to Twitter for another revelation and merely said, "Just talked to Steven S. in Moscow. Sounds great and says he wants to be in EX3, if the part fits..." If you're thinking that means Steven Spielberg, just get out of here. Stallone pretty much has to be talking about Steven Seagal, the once thriving action star who many fans have been clamoring to have show up, especially after Chuck Norris got a chance to shine in The Expendables 2. »

Sylvester Stallone confirms Mickey Rourke and Jackie Chan for The Expendables 3
18 May 2013 1:38 AM, PDT | Flickeringmyth | See recent Flickeringmyth news »
We've heard plenty of rumours over the past few months about possible casting additions for The Expendables 3, and now that Sylvester Stallone has found a director in Australian filmmaker Patrick Hughes (Red Hill), it seems it's full steam ahead on casting for the third instalment in the 'geri-action' franchise.
Taking to Twitter, Stallone has announced that Mickey Rourke will reprise the role of Tool for the threequel, having sat out last year's The Expendables 2, as well as confirming the addition of martial arts icon Jackie Chan. So far, the only other actor to be confirmed for The Expendables 3 is Wesley Snipes, but the likes of Arnold Schwarzenegger, Bruce Willis, Jason Statham, Dolph Lundgren and Jet Li are all expected to return for a third outing.
At this point in time, it's unclear when The Expendables 3 will go into production, although a 2014 release date looks likely... especially »

Jackie Chan Talks "Expendables 3" Reports
17 May 2013 10:51 AM, PDT | Dark Horizons | See recent Dark Horizons news »
Asked in Cannes this week about reports that he'll be in the next "The Expendables," actor Jackie Chan said:
"[The Expendables team] did contact me, but right now I have not read the script yet. I’d love to work with Stallone, but until I get back next week and meet Stallone and his manager, see the script… that’s when he’ll tell me what happens."
"I’d most like to have a fight scene with Stallone. Though I’d like to team up with him against the bad guy. There are so many action stars involved, it must be so difficult being the director. How do you share out every scene? 'I want to do something special, I want to do something special!' At the end, it’s all small parts, small parts, small parts. I want a big part! I hope I have a big part with Stallone!"

Sylvester Stallone Confirms Jackie Chan, Wesley Snipes & Mickey Rourke For 'The Expendables 3,' Wants To Use 'The Raid' Cast Too
17 May 2013 6:25 AM, PDT | The Playlist | See recent The Playlist news »
“The Expendables” franchise seems like both a blessing and a bit of a curse for Sylvester Stallone and his team of aging action stars. While the franchise itself has proven to be a hit, it hasn’t exactly been a career re-launcher for guys like Stallone and Schwarzengger whose films “Bullet to the Head” and “The Last Stand” proved to be unsuccessful in the box office this year. Still, at least they all have a franchise to fall back on and it’s fun to see what kind of a cast Stallone can conjure up for the next “Expendables” film. Speaking of which, Stallone has recently taken to Twitter to tease us all about who might show up for “Expendables 3.” Stallone wrote a series of tweets a few nights ago dropping a few casting tidbits. He has confirmed that Wesley Snipes and Mickey Rourke will be in the third film, »

Sylvester Stallone teases new names for The Expendables 3, and has The Raid firmly in his sights...
The big surprise so far where The Expendables 3 is concerned is the man who Sylvester Stallone has recruited to direct it. Patrick Hughes has the low budget feature Red Hill to his name, and he's been hand-picked by Stallone to bring fresh life into The Expendables franchise.
Stallone is working on the screenplay, and he'll be starring in the film of course. And he's taken to his Twitter feed to tease some of the faces who'll be joining him.
Firstly, Stallone confirmed that Mickey Rourke is back for this one. He also revealed that he's been talking about Wesley Snipes, saying "he can not Wait to fight to the top again" (which we think means he's probably in). Then he added "Antonio B....? Could be", and "What's the plan? »

Mickey Rourke and Wesley Snipes Join The Expendables 3, Jackie Chan and Antonio Banderas in Talks
16 May 2013 7:30 PM, PDT | WorstPreviews.com | See recent Worst Previews news »
Sylvester Stallone is currently working on "The Expendables 3" and is sharing lots of information with his Twitter followers. According to his last few post, we now know which actors will appear in the movie and which ones Stallone is pursuing. First, Stallone confirmed that Wesley Snipes has joined the cast and that Mickey Rourke will reprise his role. At one point, Stallone wanted to get at least one actor from "The Raid," but then seemingly changed his mind. And while he has yet to sign them, Stallone ended by saying that Jackie Chan and Antonio Banderas are being heavily considered. No word if they're interested in being part of the film. Stay tuned. »
Sylvester Stallone: 'Mighty' Mickey Rourke is back for 'Expendables 3'
16 May 2013 4:06 PM, PDT | Hitfix | See recent Hitfix news »
Mickey Rourke is seemingly back in the "Expendables" fold. According to franchise producer-star Sylvester Stallone via his official Twitter account (which should not be mistaken for an official confirmation), "Mighty Mickey is back" for the planned third installment in the top-grossing action series after sitting out last year's "Expendables 2." The "Wrestler" star appeared briefly in the first film in 2010. In addition, Stallone teased an appearance by Hong Kong action star Jackie Chan, tweeting simply: "What's the plan? Ask Jackie Chan...." Chan has previously spoken out about playing a possible role in the threequel, albeit under the condition that his »

Sylvester Stallone Says Expendables 3 Can Top The Raid
16 May 2013 3:50 PM, PDT | GeekTyrant | See recent GeekTyrant news »
Sylvester Stallone took to his Twitter account recently and offered a bunch of updates on The Expendables 3. He confirms some casting and reveals where they are looking for inspiration. I think you're going to like what he has to say.
Here are the tweets he sent out:
Scouting eastern Europe and Asia ...we are going all out on this one ... Could be a big surprise!!
What's the plan? Ask Jackie Chan....
Thinking about Raiding, The Raid....think about it...
We believe we can do better than the Raid, which was an excellent film... Raising the bar...

So he's confirmed Jackie Chan, Mickey Rourke, and Wesley Snipes will be in the movie. The most interesting part of this to me though is that he thinks they can do a better action film than The Raid. »

Action legend Sylvester Stallone took to twitter last night to drop a few names and provide some update on The Expendables 3. Among his major reveal is the return of Mickey Rourke. Rouke originally appeared only in the first Expendables as Tool, the recruitment liaison and armorer for the team as well as their tattoo artist. His strong performance in his role bought a surprising emotional depth in an overly macho action flick.In other related news, Wesley Snipes is totally game to "fight to the top again", as Sly puts it, while he remains cryptic on Antonio Banderas and Jackie Chan possibly joining the action ensemble film. Sly also mention that he has been scouting locations in eastern Europe and Asia.On which action films influence...

Sylvester Stallone Confirms Mickey Rourke for The Expendables 3, Possibly Adding Jackie Chan and Wesley Snipes, and Trying to Out-Raid The Raid

Sylvester Stallone has developed a strong with his relationship with his fans. Years ago, he did an ask-me-anything on AICN before AMAs even existed. He's willing to critique his past work, and he's happy to share what's happening with his latest projects. Stallone recently took to his Twitter feed to provide some updates on The Expendables 3. He revealed the return of Mickey Rourke by tweeting, "Mighty Mickey is back…..". Then Stallone teased a couple of new additions to the cast. In December, Jackie Chan said he was on board, and Stallone tweeted yesterday, "What's the plan? Ask Jackie Chan…." And now that Wesley Snipes is out of prison, Stallone says, "Talked to Wesley today ... He can not Wait to fight to the top again !!!!!!! Over..."

Marvel Won't Bring Jeremy Renner Back as Hawkeye?
15 May 2013 6:19 PM, PDT | WorstPreviews.com | See recent Worst Previews news »
We recently reported that Marvel is considering replacing Chris Hemsworth in future "Thor" and "The Avengers" installments. The reason is because the actor isn't happy with his small salary when his movies are bringing in hundreds of millions of dollars. While it's still unclear what will happen with Hemsworth, Scarlett Johansson and Chris Evans, it now looks like Jeremy Renner may not return as Hawkeye. It all started when Renner told the press that he wasn't happy with his character's involvement in "The Avengers," stating: "For 90% of the movie, I'm not the character I signed on to play. It's kind of a vacancy. [He's] not even a bad guy, because there's not really a consciousness to him. To take away who that character is and just have him be this robot." Marvel doesn't like it when their actors trash their movies, which is why we'll likely never see Hugo Weaving or Mickey Rourke return, »
