Stallone “May Not” Makes Big News

On March 8, 2011, the Los Angeles Times posted a piece by Steven Zeitchik titled “The Expendables Aims to Come Back — But with Stallone in a Different Guise.”  Here are some tidbits…

  • The follow-up movie is a priority at producer Millennium Films, where it’s being developed by  Stallone, the creative force behind the original. But Stallone, who both starred in and directed the 2010 summer hit, isn’t, at the moment, planning on helming the new movie. Instead, he’s been meeting with directors to tackle the sequel,,,
  • The script for the new movie has been written by David Agosto and Ken Kaufman…
  • Made essentially outside the studio system and distributed by Lionsgate, “The Expendables” became a $275-million global grosser on the strength of an action-hero ensemble cast that included Stallone, Jet Li, Jason Statham, Dolph Lundgren and Steve Austin.
