Denis Leary, star of the FX series Rescue Me recently had some things to tell Entertainment Weekly about The Expendables and Sly:
I’m looking forward to seeing that (The Expendables).
I’m not surprised Sly didn’t ask me to be in it. [Leary appeared with Sylvester Stallone in the 1993 actioner Demolition Man.] I don’t think Sly would call me for something like that. I’m too skinny. You’ve got to have big muscled guys in those movies.
I give Stallone credit, man. That movie Copland — I know he decided to go back into the action franchises, but that guy’s got some good acting in him if he wants to do it.”
