if he was still alive, I would actually be all for Patrick Swayze to show up in some role (think Point Break and Road House Swayze).

Had the same thought the other day but sadly that will never be.:( His brother Don Swayze is still alive, so maybe he could fill in but don't know if he can fight as good as Patrick.
 
How about Thomas Jane? After that Punisher Fan Movie, I think he deserves to be in this.
 
How about Sarah Michelle Gellar, Uma Thurman, George Lazenby, Timothy Dalton, Bruce Campbell, Burt Reynolds and Terence Hill?

Nathan: Good suggestion there with Thomas Jane!

If Sarah Michelle Gellar were added she could always fight with Charisma Carpenter's character in the movie.
 
It's sad to hear that Chuck isn't going to be in Exp 3... But then again Exp2 gave him the perfect send off... If that's the last time we see Chuck in a film, it was perfect... They respected the mam, the legend and his career...

And it allows other people to join as well...
 
I'd like to see Gerard Butler and Hugh Jackman team up as villains in the next one. Maybe get the new "action" stars vs. the real action stars.
 
If Clint signs up now, then he has to be a crazy person that talks to his imaginary friend.
 
They already used The Good, The Bad and the Ugly theme for Norris which is a damn shame.
 
Now this is interesting!

Clint Eastwood said:
Sylvester Stallone seems hell-bent on collecting every Hollywood badass who ever lived for his ever-expanding Expendables series, with Wesley Snipes, Harrison Ford and Clint Eastwood the latest names on his hit-list for Part Three.

Producer Avi Lerner told us that Nic Cage has already been brought on board to join the cast, and that plans were afoot to add the other three as soon as possible. However, the plan might have hit a slight setback when it comes to Eastwood…

"He does?" asked Eastwood, when told that Stallone wants him to join in the fun. "I haven't had the opportunity to see [The Expendables] yet. I haven't read any material.”

So would he consider taking a role, when Sly comes a-knocking? “Probably not,” replied Eastwood. “I'm probably more apt to direct something. Maybe I'll direct Expendables 3

Now that would be an interesting change of pace. How are you with directing motorbikes flying into helicopters, Mr Eastwood? Mr Eastwood? Where are you going?

Any love for Michael Dudikoff in here? I know he's a little abstract, sure, but I can't imagine the 80s without American Ninja. I was gonna say his mate Steve James, they could turn up together, but he died ages ago. Just found out. Extremely belated RIP, you wild sucka. Bada ba ba, don't say that!
 
I think Eastwood was joking about directing, he seemed like he was just being nice.
 
I called it after its first weekend but i just can't see them making a 3rd one after how ex-2 has performed BO wise.

Adding new stars and bigger names would just add to a potential sequels budget as ex-2 already cost 20 million more to make than the 1st.
 
The next sequel seriously needs to balance out both sides. In Expendables 2 the good guys have an overwhelming amount of muscle men fighting for them (Stallone, Norris, Schwarzenegger, Willis, Crews, Lundgren, etc.) and the bad guys only had Van Damme?
 
Yeah, other than Van Damme and Adkins the rest of the bad guys were just cannon fodder. Hope we get a DC with this like we did with the first movie.

But the expendable (ha) cannonfodder is a defining characteristic of 1980s action movies, which is what this film series is trying to emulate.
 
Does the fact EX2 made more money than the first one change your mind?

It hasn't that's my point. Are you saying if it somehow does? than maybe but the chances of that are pretty slim at this point.

Hell i enjoyed the movie but i mean from a financial standpoint i don't see them justifying another sequel especially with more stars and salaries.

Uh. No it has chief.

The int'l BO carried this sucker past the first films total gross.
