Expendables, Too?

I think that this may be my favorite poster for The Expendables.  If you like it, you might want to check out the King-of-the-Box-Office size version over at IMPAwards.

Because The Expendables is doing so well at the box office and continues to track above expectations, talk of a sequel is a quickly moving forward.  So it got me thinking…

“Who would I want to see in The Expendables 2?”

Without a doubt I’d like to see roles [even cameos] for…

  • Ron Perlman – He may have been born to play Hellboy, but he’s been groomed to be an Expendable
  • Danny “Machette” Trejo –  he could be great playing either an Expendable or foe
  • Chuck Norris – most likely in a cameo a la Arnold’s
  • David Morse – an under-rated actor who never disappoints
  • Ray Stevenson – yep, the mug from Punisher: War Zone

Those are my top choices… others I considered included: Kurt Russell, William Smith, Clancy Brown, William Forsythe

Earlier this week I heard from my buddy Miguel Insignares and here’s what he sent…

Hello Craig

Hope all is well.  I had a great time at Comic-Con and wanted to share some photos of the EXPENDABLES cast and EXCLUSIVE video of Sly receiving his award at the IGN VIP party! Everyone was great and special thanks to Terry Crews who was very excited to be a part of this ensemble and very
generous with his time–a class act.

Keep up the great work.

Thanks,
Miguel
