Expendables 5

I really like the first two but after that it gets worse. This will not happen and stallone was not in the last one all that much.

[Hardback247]

Because why bother quitting while you're ahead?

[HomerThompson]

Maybe would help if actual information was posted lol

[Guydowood]

If this actually happens, then it needs to go back to the original 2 films roots with glorious violence and get Carl Weathers, Steven Seagal, Jeff Speakman, Michael Dudikoff, Kurt Russell, Peter Weller and Jackie Chan, Pierce Brosnan and Nicholas Cage with a touch of Michael Caine as the handler!

Yeah right

[Invid Ninja]

As I said in the Ex4 thread, I'd be very, very shocked if this series continued anymore given the dismal reception. I'm a mark for trashy action so I still got a chuckle over the body count silliness but even though I'd still be there opening weekend for a 5, the series should be realistically put out to pasture.

people on the internet are having fun with the idea...

After 4 bombed? Doubtful.

I could see this happen if Stallone/Barney is no longer in the film and Christmas is leading the group on his own this time.

Maybe have Christmas go out and recruit his own batch of Expendables.

I mean that’s not that far from the plot of the 4th movie. After 3 already performed poorly and 4 was a total bomb (by far the worst in reviews, cinemascore, and box office) I just don’t see why anyone would make a 5th.

[Blu Myers]

The ONLY reason to do this is to erase the absolute atrocity that was Expendables 4. Like Rocky V (not saying RV is nowhere near as bad). If he can go out on a high note, then I'll watch it.

Yes, and they can have Stallone be a consultant or something, a guide in the story/movie to help the team out.
The action in Ex4 was entertaining and lots of it, so there is no problem there. Just a matter of the story and giving each older action hero enough to do. Statham had the lead role, so I can see him becoming the main leader.

Expendable5?

I will say, I enjoyed the last one. It didn't feel like an Expendables movie though, and many of the sets felt like the terrible CGI sets from the show Once Upon a Time. But, as a Jason Statham action movie it felt just above average.

I'm sure I'll watch a 5th one.

[Star Lord]

Forgot the the fourth one was even out lol.

[L.J.]

Would like to see a finale where it gets back to the basics of 1&2. Not about new recruit's, but the old action stars. Bring Snipes back and Jet L. Even if it's a cameo. Get Cage in it maybe even some of the b movie action stars. Let Cage be the leader of the bad guys. Cruise would be a good one to if they could afford him. Try to go out with a bang like the first one felt.

[Tibor Lugosi]

This just bloomed after Dolph Lundgren said in an interview "I think Sly is working on another chapter", so it doesn't mean anything. Sly afaik is working on season 2 of Tulsa King and Cliffhanger 2 (allegedly)...

Probably right, Cliffhanger 2 but why. Lol, would rather see a Cobra 2.

Who’s there left to cast at this point? More importantly, will any studio commit to it after the fourth one apparently bombed catastrophically?
