'Expendables 4' Movie Release Date And Casting News: Production will begin soon for "The Expendables 4" and recent reports say the screenplay is being written by Dave Callahan. Expendables 4 will be directed by Avi Lerner.
Movie News Guide reported Pierce Brosnan will be a part of this film.
'Expendables 4' could earn the title of the most expensive movie in the series. Sylvester Stallone, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Jason Statham, Pierce Brosnan, Hulk Hogan and Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson are already officially cast for "The Expendables 4." Steve Austin is also rumored to be joining the cast.
Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson reportedly said that if he is picked up for "Expendables 4," he wants to be the villain.
"I don't want to be on their team and be buddies with them. F**k that noise," The Rock said. "I want to hunt every single one of them down and tell them to "send your soul to heaven cause your ass is mine."
The future of The Expendables franchise isn't guaranteed because the Sylvester Stallone's aging-action-hero franchise hasn't been making as much money domestically as the older films. Expendables 3 only made $39.3 million domestically.
"Expendables 4" cast rumors also include Manny Pacquiao, Mel Gibson, Antonio Banderas, Harrison Ford, Randy Couture, Dolph Lundgren, Wesley Snipes, Ronda Rousey, Terry Crews, Jet Li, and Kellan Lutz.
It's been over a year since the disappointing box office results of "Expendables 3." Sylvester Stallone, who won't be in the proposed Rambo: New Blood TV series for Fox, blamed the PG rating for the drop-off, but according to reports, he is not going to make the same mistakes with "Expendables 4."
'The Expendables 4' will reportedly have a 2017 theater release. Although it hasn't been confirmed by "The Expendables" actor Silvester Stallone, the all-star action thriller is set for a 2016 shoot and a 2017 release.
According to Variety "The Expendables 4," will continue its all-star action formula on a budget of $100 million.
