The Expendables Sequel Trailer Arrives! Boom! Bang! Liam Hemsworth?!

Sorry Arnie, but we gotta say it:

You're looking old! Perhaps you've held your last grenade launcher.

The teaser trailer for The Expendables II has just been released and it looks exaclty how you would think it would. Lots of guns, guys and goodies that go kaboom!

But Liam Hemsworth? Now, don't get us wrong - the boy is SMOKIN! But his brother was Thor! THOR! Wielding a mighty hammer and everything. Sounds more befitting of this congregation than the kid of The Last Song.

Then again, maybe they have seen an early cut of The Hunger Games.

OMG! Is there an early cut of The Hunger Games?! Can we see it to???

Rocky: The Musical Coming

Rocky The Musical

Imagine: The sweat, the blood, two men beating the crap out of each other. The songs and lyrics they sing.

Wait, what??!

Yeah, apparently they're working on a Rocky musical!

Here's what Stallone has to say:

“I always had the idea of Rocky as a musical. At the end of the day, Rocky is a love story and he could never have reached the final bell without Adrian. To see this story coming to life on a musical stage makes me proud. And it would make Rocky proud.”

We're not sure Rocky can be proud of anything, being a fictional character, but yes, there will be Eye of the Tiger.

Let's hope that it comes to America, because right now it's slated for Germany!

Does this interest you??

As for the second stuntman, Nuo Sun, who was hospitalized, his condition has been upgraded to "stable," which is great news.

He's been taken to a facility in Munich, Germany for further treatment.

Meanwhile, production company Nu Image/Millenium Films have released a statement on the two stuntmen:

Uh-oh! They're down one Expendable!

Apparently, the only reason

Arnie, Sly, And Willis On The Set Of Expendables 2

Sly Willis Arnold Expendables 2

There it is, guys: the first pic of the legendary trio together on the set of Sylvester Stallone's follow up to his popular Expendables movie!

The pic came from Anrold's twitter, but there's no word as to how they fit into the flick. They WERE in the first one, but briefly. We can only assume they've been expanded — Sly style!

Like the first installment, this one will be packed with action stars too.

But, we wish they had gotten Aaron Sorkin to write the script this time around.

Ha!

Did U like the first? Pumped for the next?

Arnold Schwarzenegger And Bruce Willis Sign On For MAJOR Roles In The Expendables 2!

arnold and bruce join expendables 2

Deplorable scandals aside, let's take a moment to acknowledge that the childhood dream of basically every man who was a kid in the '90s has just come true!

It was slightly over a year ago that Sylvester Stallone opened up about his massive plans for The Expendables franchise, which included a director's cut AND a sequel.

Now, LOTS of progress is being made on The Expendables 2, and we've just learned that Arnold Schwarzenegger and Bruce Willis have signed on for substantial roles in the action flick!

Filming stars this October, which will take place around the same time that Arnold shoots Last Stand, and right before Bruce shoots Die Hard 5.

A bunch of the original cast members will also be returning, and other new additions MAY include Jean-Claude Van Damme and……drum roll….CHUCK NORRIS!

Chuck Norris doesn't sign on to The Expendables 2………….The Expendables 2 signs on to Chuck Norris.

LOLz!

How do U feel about this flick? Are U willing to give Arnold a second chance???
