“The Expendables” Was a Tough Shoot

On March 5, 2010, Stuff.co.nz posted a piece titled, “Sylvester Stallone Feels the Strain.” Sly is quoted about how rough The Expendables shoot was…

“I’ve never been so happy to wrap a film in my life,” he told Empire magazine. “I swear, if you took all the Rambos together, it wouldn’t equal four weeks of that shoot. It was unbelievable. Everything was difficult.

“I’ve just had my throat operated on. I had to have my neck fused. There are three screws in my spinal cord – I had to have a cadaver bone put in my neck! I had my leg operated on too. I had my whole calf pulled up. That was brutal. That hurt. And I need both rotator cuffs done in three weeks. It’s a b***h.”
