If there's one thing Sylvester Stallone understands about the 'Expendables' franchise, it's that you've got to go big or go home. Everything we've heard about the upcoming 'Expendables 3' makes it sound like it's in a mad rush to make up for the particularly poor second film, which can only be a good thing. Mr. Stallone took to Twitter to share and spitball some ideas, including the casting of a new star and the return of another.
The all-star cast of the 'Expendables' franchise is gearing up for a third installment, which our buddy Sylvester Stallone has already said is hoping will include an abundance of "new blood." There've been a number of names thrown into the mix -- one of which was Nicolas Cage, though Sly insists he has no knowledge regarding that particular rumor -- but someone brand-new to the crew has confirmed to have officially boarded the action star-filled 'Expendables 3,' and that's Mr. Jackie Chan.
Supposedly 'Chinese Zodiac' is Jackie Chan's last big action movie. That would be easier to believe if he didn't have at least one more action movie lined up, and word is he might be back for 'Rush Hour 4.' Regardless, if 'Chinese Zodiac' becomes his final foot-to-ass film, it looks like he'll be going out on top.
Are you ready for a 'Rush Hour 4?' Jackie Chan and Chris Tucker might be, according to ‘Rush Hour’ producer Arthur Sarkissian, said they’re ramping up for a fourth chapter and are about ready to bring a screenwriter on board to beef up the story.
Now hold on a second -- Jackie Chan is making another action movie? Didn't he say he was done doing action films? It appears if he hasn't truly abandoned the action genre just yet and is looking to make a new action/comedy, this time it's an English language one.
In his prime, Jackie Chan was marvelous. The untouchable martial artist kicked, punched and grinned his way to super-stardom in whirling dervish features like ‘Police Story,’ ‘Supercop,’ ‘The Legend of Drunken Master,’ ‘Rumble in the Bronx’ and ‘Who Am I?’ But age got the best of him, and Chan ended up in pictures like ‘Rush Hour 3’ and ‘The Spy Next Door.’ It seemed like Chan’s action career was over. Not yet.
At the 2012 Cannes film festival a huge piece of news was announced: The king of action movies was finally going to step off the mountain he had been on top of for over thirty years. That's right, Jackie Chan is retiring from action movies.
