The Expendables wasn’t a very good movie. The Expendables 2 was even worse. Now comes The Expendables 3, which has already been confirmed will be released as a PG-13 movie when it hits theaters on August 15 and, once again, it appears to be all about packing in a bunch of recognizable names above all else.
In The Expendables 3, Barney (Sylvester Stallone), Christmas (Jason Statham) and the rest of the team comes face-to-face with Conrad Stonebanks (Mel Gibson), who years ago co-founded The Expendables with Barney. Stonebanks subsequently became a ruthless arms trader and someone who Barney was forced to kill… or so he thought. Stonebanks, who eluded death once before, now is making it his mission to end The Expendables — but Barney has other plans. Barney decides that he has to fight old blood with new blood, and brings in a new era of Expendables team members, recruiting individuals who are younger, faster and more tech-savvy. The latest mission becomes a clash of classic old-school style versus high-tech expertise in the Expendables’ most personal battle yet.
Additional cast members include Jet Li, Randy Couture, Dolph Lundgren, Wesley Snipes, Antonio Banderas, Ronda Rousey, Harrison Ford, Arnold Schwarzenegger and Kelsey Grammer. Check out the trailer below.
