Sylvester Stallone Posts Cheeky Expendables 4 Video With Jason Statham

Sylvester Stallone posts a cheeky video with Jason Statham from the set of The Expendables 4, suggesting that he’s “leaving” the franchise.

Sylvester Stallone has posted a cheeky new video from the set of The Expendables 4 with Jason Statham, saying that he’s “leaving” the set to his co-star. Stallone created The Expendables in 2010, starring as the lead character, Barney Ross, the head of a mercenary business with a bunch of rough-and-tumble recruits that travel the globe taking on high-stakes missions for big paydays.The series was meant to be a throwback to the action films of the ’80s and ’90s, bringing back the stars of the era to team up from film-to-film. Thus far, The Expendables has spawned two sequels, featuring stars like Jason Statham, Bruce Willis, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Jean-Claude Van Damme, and Antonio Banderas, amongst others.The Expendables 3 took a detour, bringing in a young cast and opting for a PG-13 rating, which caused it to be the lowest-grossing installment of the franchise. Now, the fourth entry, the aptly titled Expend4bles, seeks to reunite more of the older stars, including Dolph Lundgren and Randy Couture, while recruiting new (yet polished) action stars.This includes those from Asian cinema, such as The Raid’s Iko Uwais (as the main villain) and Tony Jaa. Also entering the Expendables franchise for the first time is Andy Garcia, Megan Fox, and 50 Cent.In a new video posted by Stallone (which appears to be an “old” video), the actor cheekily teases Expendables 4 co-star Statham about “leaving,” saying that the actor will be on his own.Statham feigns sadness, saying, “It’s going to be a very lonely set, now he’s leaving us. It’s called a mutiny. It’s called abandonment.” Stallone replies, saying that Statham is “more than capable there, captain,” implying that he’s leaving the actor in charge of the group as he makes his exit. Check out the full exchange at the end of article.While the video feels like it’s simply a bit of fun showing the camaraderie between two actors on set, it can’t help but also feel a little ominous to the suggestions and theories that say Stallone will not only be leaving The Expendables franchise, but that he’ll be killed off in The Expend4bles.Recently, footage was revealed from the latest entry at CinemaCon, as well as a poster, both of which billed Stallone as “And Sylvester Stallone”, which suggests his part is much smaller this time around. It’s also been theorized that Stallone would be handing The Expendables over to Statham’s character, Lee Christmas, as a spinoff film featuring his character was rumored as far back as 2020.This latest set video from Stallone doesn’t feel like it was posted accidentally. and the stories continue to stack in favor of the legendary actor ending his tenure with The Expendables. It’s entirely possible that his Barney Ross doesn’t die, but merely takes a backseat role (similar to the Mickey Rourke character in The Expendables), but if the fourth entry wants to take some risks, killing off Ross is a good move.Stallone has been distancing himself from various franchise roles of late, including Rocky and Rambo. Instead, he has been opting for newer roles that fit his age range, such as next year’s superhero film The Samaritan and the Taylor Sheridan-produced gangster series, Tulsa King. However it plays out, Stallone has at least created a franchise that can continue to pass the torch for decades to come, whether The Expendables 4 acts as his exit or not.

‘I am officially off the market’: When Margot Robbie revealed she made the ‘conscious’ decision of not dating actors


Margot Robbie revealed her decision to not date actors because of the media scrutiny that came with a public relationship of two high-profile actors
Back in 2015, A-lister Margot Robbie made a declaration that she would not be dating any actors. The actress may have alluded to her fiance Tom Ackerley, who she married the following year in 2016. In an exclusive interview with Marie Claire, she revealed that being in a relationship as an actor herself came with its own set of challenges. She believed that dating someone who was popular would add on to the media scrutiny.

Margot Robbie opened up on why she made a conscious decision to not date actorsTalking to Marie Claire, she claimed, “I am officially off the market.” She then shared the reasoning behind her decision and added, “I made a conscious decision not to date actors.” She continued to explain, “But not because I hate actors. That’s a nasty generalization to make, and that’s not the case. People take such an interest in your love life when you have a profile, it puts a lot of stress on a relationship.”
The Barbie actress continued, “So two people with profiles, I figure it’s just double the amount of scrutiny, and I’d like to avoid that at all costs.” This came after reports of her locking lips with Tarzan co-star Alexander Skarsgard started making rounds. It was reported that she was caught kissing the actor during the Sundance Film Festival.

Margot Robbie revealed she opted for a minimal lifestyle even after becoming an actorIn the interview, Robbie also opened up about how she was adapting to fame. She shared, “I have a normal 24-year-old life. If I were a waitress, I’d probably have the exact same lifestyle. I’d go to the same clubs I go to already, live in the same house with the same housemates, hang out with the same people.”
However, Margot Robbie tied the knot with Tom Ackerley who is an English producer and actor. The duo met on the sets of 2013 movie Suite Francaise where Tom was working as an assistant director. Post marriage, both of them launched their production company LuckyChap Entertainment.

‘Rocky’ Was Quite Different In His Original Screenplay, Sylvester Stallone Claims


Sylvester Stallone took his friend’s advice on a rewrite of the original screenplay to Rocky. A few tweaks later, he was on his way to major success.
In the new Netflix documentary Sly, Stallone discussed how he initially conceived of the project, which had a much harder edge. In the early version, Rocky was depicted as a “thuggish” character, inspired by Martin Scorsese’s crime drama, Mean Streets.

But Stallone’s perspective changed when a friend read the script and thought the boxer was too cruel for audiences to actually care about him.
Stallone recalled her crying.

“She goes, ‘I hate Rocky. I hate him. He’s cruel. He hits people. He beats them up.’”
Stallone took it to heart, and asked what he could do to soften the character.

“I said, ‘what if you stop short of it?’ Like, maybe he almost did. He could have, that’s his job, but he doesn’t?’ ‘That’d be nice,’” he added. “I said, ‘What if he had a girlfriend or something?’ ‘Yeah, that’s nice.’ So I go back, start writing that: ‘Girlfriend. Nice.’”
$117 million in box office later, a franchise was born.

Stallone also revealed that actor Dolph Lundgren sent him to the hospital during one fight scene in Rocky IV.
“Dolph Lundgren… he pulverized me,” Stallone says in the documentary. “Later that night, my heart started to swell—which happens when the heart hits the chest—and then my blood pressure went up to 260, and they thought I was going to be talking to angels. Next thing I know, I’m in intensive care, where I’m surrounded by nuns, and I thought, ‘OK, that’s curtains.’”
Stallone was in the hospital for nine days following the incident, praying for “one more round.”
“For the first minute of the fight, it is going to be a free-for-all,” Stallone told Lundgren. The Swedish actor joked in a separate interview that all he did was “obey orders,” explaining, “[Stallone] was the boss. I did what he told me.”
Doctors allegedly told Stallone that he received a blow to the ribs that made his heart rattle around in his ribcage, a condition typically seen in head-on collisions. “I did hit a bus, of sorts,” Stallone joked.
