Ultimate Dolph

Guillaume Roussel (Black Beauty, 3 Days to Kill, The Three Musketeers: D’Artagnan, The Spy, Happy!) has recently been scoring the upcoming action sequel The Expendables 4.

“It’s done and I’m not in it,” the star of Netflix’s FUBAR series tells Parade in the new cover story. He explains that he told his friend Stallone—who also wrote and directed the films—in advance of the production that he was bowing out. “I said, ‘You know what, we have done this and I’m out of it.’ And he really understood.”

Schwarzenegger, deep in his second (and final) term as the governor of California during filming, took an uncredited cameo as Trench Mauser. “I did it as a favor to Sly,” he explains. “I shot it on a Saturday for two hours quickly in a church with Bruce Willis.”

After resuming his acting career out of office, he agreed to reprise the character in 2012’s The Expendables 2 and 2014’s The Expendables 3. “Sly said, ‘Oh, can you do Expendables 2?’ and I did that for a weekend,” Schwarzenegger recalls. “Then it was expanded for Expendables 3. And that was it.”

Still, he and Stallone do plan on flexing their muscles once more on the big screen: “We’re going to do something together one day.”
