‏Exclusive: Mel Gibson Said to Be Joining Expendables 3″
Mel Gibson came under some fire last night at the Mel Brooks tribute, still the butt of jokes after his career ending moves with the police, anti-Semitism, racism, drinking, philandering, accusations of violence against his baby mama, and so on. And of course The Beaver.
But now Im told that Gibson will appear in The Expendables 3, the third installment of Sylvester Stallones shoot em up series that also features his former Planet Hollywood buddies and partners Bruce Willis and Arnold Schwarzenegger. Theres no confirmation, but the source seemed serious.
Also featured in E3″ are Jackie Chan and Milla Jovovich.
Gibson, sources say, will play the villain in the new movie. Hes lucky to be included in a film with other stars at this point. After all his scandals and The Beaver he cant open a film. He made a movie two years ago that was released to video on demand. Basically, theres very little demand to pay for Mel Gibson in a movie theater.
Stallone had Tweeted back on April 13th that Gibson was not interested in directing Ex 3. But I guess he changed his mind about appearing in the film which also features Nicolas Cage.
