A new Expend4bles poster brings punk rock energy to the action-packed sequel led by Sylvester Stallone and Jason Statham.
Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse isn’t the only movie bringing punk rock vibes to theaters this year. Lionsgate debuted a new poster for Expend4bles, the fourth chapter of the Expendables franchise that makes you want to throw up your horns and bang your head. The Expend4bles poster features a neon skull with a mohawk made of weapons! As a fire burns inside the skull, guns and knives protrude from almost every angle, as if Ghost Rider became an NRA poster boy. Included are the names of various cast members, from Stallone to Statham, Jaa, Uwais, Fox, and more!
After wrapping his part in Expend4bles, Stallone announced that his fourth film in the action-packed franchise is his last. “It’s time to be movin’ on” from The Expendables. Stallone added that he’s “ready to pass the baton on to Jason [Statham] and his capable hands.” Should there be another franchise installment, Staham might be the new face of the series. As Stallone walked through the set, he spoke of the “heart, energy, and humour” he hopes to bring to all his projects.
“The greatest thing is being able to provide films and entertainment [where] maybe there’s a little message in there, because what I try to convey in my successful films is the human touch, the bond,” Stallone said while reflecting on his time as the Expendables leader, Barney Ross. “Not so much the action, the action is self-evident, but just relating to the audience in a way they can identify with whatever the mission is with the characters at hand.”
Although Sylvester Stallone says he’s finished with The Expendables, he teased that he’s “getting ready to accept the next challenge.” The Expend4bles will feature Sylvester Stallone, Jason Statham, Dolph Lundgren, Randy Couture, Megan Fox, Tony Jaa, Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson, and Andy Garcia. Scott Waugh directs from a screenplay by Spenser Cohen with revisions by Max Adams and John Joseph Connolly.
