Sylvester Stallone Reviews, Interviews & More
Sylvester Stallone, who has excitedly taken to Twitter like your annoying aunt who thinks it’s “cute” to Tweet every last random filament of thought flitting through her head, has been using the social media platform to discuss his search for the perfect director for The Expendables 3. Stallone directed the first film, and Simon West directed the second, and...
Action fans both rejoice and take heed. It appears that Sylvester Stallone has cast Wesley Snipes in the next Expendables movie, and that Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson may not be able to appear in Fast and Furious 7. So they give and they take.
If there’s one thing Sylvester Stallone knows how to do, it’s return to back to the well over and over and over and over and over again (see: Rocky II-VI, Rambo II-IV). As such, following the surprise success of The Expendables, he quickly gave the world The Expendables II. And with The Expendables II...
Generally the weekend of a Super Bowl is one of the lowest grossing box office weekends of any given year. most of the big December titles have lost their steam, and the new stuff is usually weak. There are two new films this weekend, one can be seen as counter-programing, the other, a sacrifice to the gods.
With Thanksgiving this Thursday, there’s a paucity of new releases, partly because sales are going to be all about the discounts and deals that come with Black Friday. So there’s one new movie that’s actually pretty entertaining (The Expendables 2), one of the most famous bombs in the history of cinema, and a box set featuring most of the films of one of...
Sylvester Stallone wants as much man power as he can get his hands on for his upcoming Expendables movie. Sly just announced that Nicolas Cage will lend his "veneer intellectual" to The Expendables 3.
It’s been a rough couple of years for Hulk Hogan—a bad divorce, his son went to jail, and just last week, a sex tape was release of him having sex with his best friend’s then-wife. So, yeah, he’s had better days/ months/ years. And he recently paid a visit to the Howard Stern Show, in which /Film notes the Hulkster announced his...
Sylvester Stallone is continuing to gather together every Hollywood action hero who ever lived for his ever-growing Expendables series. Sort of like Pokemon--gotta catch ‘em all! Lately, he’s added Wesley Snipes, Harrison Ford and Clint Eastwood to the list of possibles for The Expendables 3. However, it sounds like Eastwood may prefer to direct it, instead. Read on for...
It seems the Expendables phenomenon is a force not to be reckoned with; the successful action extravaganza has given new life to Arnie and Sly's flagging careers, there’s already a second sequel potentially in the works, and now we’ve heard news of an all-female incarnation. Excited? Then read on for more.
Looking forward to The Expendables 2? Well then you may also be pleased to know that some of the key players from the film are also gearing up to spread the word about their next films. Arnold Schwarzenegger’s standalone film The Last Stand had its first trailer go online earlier today, and now we can show you the first real look at Sylvester Stallone in Bullet to the...
The roster of talent involved with the Expendables movies means that - even if the first picture was pretty terrible - there's a thrill that comes with the sequel. And it seems like The Expendables 2 knows the problems the first film had and decided that the best way to deliver a sequel is just make it a greatest hits of action icons doing...
Though The Expendables 2 doesn't hit theaters until Friday, one of the film's producers is already talking about who they want for the third film. Producer Avi Lerner threw out four names, Clint Eastwood, Wesley Snipes, Harrison Ford, and Nicolas Cage. And he says they've already got Cage lined up.
If you were a kid in the 1980s who loved action flicks, there was one team-up you dreamed you’d see hit the big screen—Arnold Schwarzenegger and Sylvester Stallone. But despite the occasional tease and cameo (The Last Action Hero, The Expendables franchise), a full-on team up never happened. Until now, that is, when both actors are a little older,...
If you’ll recall, back in January, Chuck Norris demanded that The Expendables 2 be downgraded from a hard R like its predecessor to a lighter PG-13 because, quote, “so kids can see it.” Because, as you know, if there’s one thing children need to be watching, it’s Chuck Norris and a cache of 1980s action stars pretending to murder a lot of people.
Today, Sylvester Stallone returned to Comic-Con, and brought his action hero buddies with him. The Expendables 2 panel, which took place at the legendary Hall H, opened with a trailer, which ScreenCrush's Jordan Hoffman best described as a "roll call of action cinema's greatest heroes intercut with images of explosions and fisticuffs."
How do you screw up the excitement for the cheesy goodness that is The Expendables 2? I mean, you’ve got an action film starring Sylvester Stallone, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Bruce Willis, Jean-Claude Van Damme, Chuck Norris, Dolph Lundgren, and Jason Statham—it’s going to be big, stupid fun, right? So how do you knock the goodwill for the film down a peg? You release a...
Looking as if Sylvester Stallone took one look at the horrible theatrical poster for The Dark Knight Rises and said, “hey could we do that, but even crappier?,” the final theatrical poster for The Expendables 2 is a sight to behold. Featuring cartoonish flames, photoshopped heads floating on top of bodies, and actors with about 25 years sandblasted off of their faces,...
Robert De Niro and Sylvester Stallone are in talks to star in a new boxing comedy from director Peter Segal (Tommy Boy, Anger Management), that would see two retired boxers return to the ring for a final Grudge Match. A boxing film about a battle between the men who played Raging Bull's Jake La Motta and the great Rocky Balboa,...
Featuring Arnold Schwarzenegger announcing “I’m back!,” Jason Statham stabbing a groom at a wedding and declaring “I now pronounce you man and knife,” and Sylvester Stallone crashing an airplane into a train tunnel in the side of a mountain, the trailer for The Expendables 2 features some of the most ludicrous action clichés committed to celluloid since...
Brace yourselves, folks—you are about to witness the most testosterone-heavy 60 second clip you have ever, or likely will ever, witness. Seriously, this thing is the visual equivalent of eating a pound of raw meat, going to the gym for an hour, and then challenging a stranger to a bloody streetfight. Also, like those things, it’s kind of really dumb (but in a fun way). What am I...
