I hope sfx are still in the works :s
It has never been a point in favor of Nu Image productions.

Rumor has it that THE EXPENDABLES could be one of the possible TV series to be developed at Lionsgate.

Hmm... Don't know if I'm a big fan of the idea. Considering that the stars are the big draw of these films, I highly doubt Sly or the rest of the gang would sign on for a scripted tv show... If it does happen, I imagine they'll cast rappers, former wrestlers, and the like to play the characters (remember the Blade series?), which already has a bad ring to it. Please leave The Expendables gang on the silver screen where they belong...

Gota say I agree, this should be left alone and not (butchered might be the wrong word but its the only one that I can think of) but, butchered and adapted to TV.

It's just a rumor, far to be confirmed or set in stone...

There are a few TV action stars that don't currently have gigs like Adrian Paul, Russell Wong, Richard Burgi and Mark Valley. Maybe get someone like Mark Dacascos onboard.

If its directly spinning off from the films then it would be something Dolph could headline as the star name. I think at best you'd get Sly to guest star but the other marquee names wouldn't do it.
It would be interesting to see a show, if done to the quality levels of things like 24, with Dolph, Randy, Terry.

Then as mentioned there's great scope to include lots of guys like Gruner, Daniels, Dacascos, etc, etc. It might end up being a bit of a circus, but dagnabbit, I'd pay to see that circus!

Second TV spot:



Love the Willis line at the end.

Looks like this spot was leaked (can't find any official source)?

Official source

That's not an official source, ENTV grab videos as they appear on the net...

Seems the video comes from this "unlisted" video, the quality is slightly better.


Has this spot already started airing on TV?

I had just finished watching the above clip, and at the end there wss a JCVD interview, he looked wrecked!

Another TV spot

Liam, Arnold and Bruce appear alongside each other in the eagerly-anticipated sequel The Expendables 2. The movie also stars Sylvester Stallone, Jason Statham and Dolph Lundgren and Liam had a great time shooting his scenes.
