On January 15, 2013, Collider posted an update with Jason Statham.  In it Statham talked about Homefront [written by Sly], Expendables 3 and more.  Here are some tidbits…

Homefront is a film that Sylvester Stallone wrote for himself actually.  So, to have a screenplay presented to me by him that he was intending to star in himself was a career point for me.  I said, “Wow!”  He’s a great writer and it’s a really, really cool story.  It’s based on a book written by Chuck Logan called Homefront.  He adapted it to suit me.  It was like a tailor-made suit and Sly did all the sewing.  Fantastic!

Did Sly talk to you at all about Expendables 3 and casting?  Statham:  No.  I saw him on stage at the Golden Globes and he gave me the look.  He went “Whoo!”  He hasn’t said anything but I hear rumors.  I should never go with rumors because they’re often not correct, but I hear Jackie Chan might be coming to the party and that would make me very happy because I do like Jackie Chan.

On December 17, 2012, The New York Post ran a piece titled, Stallone, Schwarzenegger and More Anti-Gun Celebrities.

They went back to 1999 to get this quote from Sly:

Rambo himself is anti-gun. In response to the shooting of Phil Hartman in 1999, Sylvester Stallone told Access Hollywood, “Until America, door to door, takes every handgun, this is what you’re gonna have. It’s pathetic. It really is pathetic. It’s sad. We’re living in the Dark Ages over there.”
