The Expendables gets another!

I've been really busy the last few days with Thanksgiving and all (check that link, trust me), but this is news better late than never, for those who haven't seen it already.




Sylvester Stallone's upcoming mercenary flick, The Expendables, which already features Jet Li, Jason Statham, as well as Stallone himself, will now have another actioner on board. Old Rocky rival Dolph Lundgren has now officially joined the cast, in what may be the great action ensemble of the new millenium.

My enthusiam for this project is already well known amongst whatever community this blog actually has, but now it's going through the frickin' roof. By casting what are essentially are B+ action stars, there won't be too many ego trips going on, and I feel this cast will gel to perfection. The addition of Lundgren makes sense on so many levels, and the next question is, of course, who else will be expendable? Another rumored is addition is Forest Whitaker, which would be badass in every respect (see this clip). If Wesley Snipes wasn't going to jail, I think he'd be worth something, or maybe someone like Mark Dacascos, I don't know. Either way, I think it's safe to say that we got one helluva action movie on tap for 2010.

Who do you think should be 'expendable?' Leave your comments below.
