Couldn't make an agreement with Cage and Travolta?

Apparently Antonio Banderas has also been approached but is unlikely gonna be able to...

It's a wrap for Chuck Norris! He left Bulgaria and sends his week-end greetings from home:

I am back home from Bulgaria & have a lot of things to share with you once I get caught up from the trip. In the mean time, I pray you have a great weekend. Your friend, Chuck Norris

Cool, he brought Slavi on set. Maybe he'll have a little part.

In Bulgaria to make another film, Courtney Solomon (UNISOL 3 & 4, STASH HOUSE) talks what he heard about JCVD in TE2:

Good to see these reach macho-men action movies making a comeback. And especially with The Expendables, you’ve got Van Damme back on the big screen.
Apparently, Jean-Claude is really, really good too. He’s like his best shape in years, like he looks great. Everybody’s talking about it in Bulgaria. They’re just telling everyone he looks great. Yeah.
Are you on board this as a producer, too!?
On Expendables 2? No, I have nothing to do with it. I’m doing a different movie there and it’s all just happening in the same place because these guys stay in the same hotel because there’s only one hotel there, so we all stay in the same place.

Chuck looks in good shape. Can't wait to see him kick ass. It's a shame it seems Cage, Travolta or Banderas couldn't be wrangled in. Obviously it's rumoured that there's one significant part yet to cast. I'm hoping they give the gig to Michael Biehn.

Badass pictures, they all look great! By the way Tom, Sly hinted that he wanted to give guys like Michael Pare and Biehn a shot at a comeback, but I believe Biehn replied saying he did not need Sly or something along those lines. I personally hope it's Travolta, Cage's hair would distract me and I've never really liked Banderas. Travolta has Face/Off, Broken Arrow, From Paris with Love, Swordfish and Taking of Pelham 123 to his name, he is good as a baddie/anti-hero.

What about veteran actors who don't headline movies anymore like Tom Berenger, Willem Dafoe, James Woods or Rutger Hauer?

[whiteandblank]

Good idea that.

Or Jean Reno maybe?

I see smart asses have been digging into crew members FB pages Producers not so happy about that...

I would not know...found this on on Stallonezone...

I never understand why the crew post pictures on facebook and the producers are surprised they get out? Plus, let's be honest, there has been nothing that could be deemed as spoiler material, yet, I think the odd image escaping will keep the hype alive. You'd think a 100 million dollar flick would have better security though, aside from all the measures taken to keep these films from getting out, something always seems to surface.

[Jox]

They don't like things to escape their control (I would too) and even though nothing's too spoilish has gotten out they don't control what gets out, and also they're afraid people would negatively judge the project based on those (there's a reason they don't release all the official stills for a movie when they are hundreds of them approved). I don't know about this one but from my point of view there didn't seem to have more security than any other movie on the first film, and well you can't control what people are posting on their personal FB profiles...
