More on The Expendables series

Dating back to 2010, the veteran actor wrote and directed the first movie of the popular franchise featuring actors like Jason Statham, Dolph Lundgren, Randy Couture and more. The series created by Stallone brought together a host of action stars of Hollywood to team up as mercenaries and fight against their common enemy. Grossing over $274.5 million worldwide, the movie witnessed a massive success at the box office paving the way for the second instalment in the franchise two years later. 

The second movie saw a return of actors like Stallone, Jason Statham, Dolph Lundgren along with some new faces. The sequel was also deemed a huge success accumulating a decent score with the critics and at the box office. The last instalment of the franchise, however, proved to be a disappointment for the fans as it saw some new faces taking up significant roles. With Expendables 3 turning out to be the least profitable film of the franchise, fans have now shifted their hopes high to the upcoming Expendables film. 

As per reports, actors like Dolph Lundgren, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Harrison Ford, Jean-Claude Van Damme, Wesley Snipes, Antonio Banderas, Mickey Rourke, Bruce Willis, and more are set to feature in the fourth instalment. Adding fuel to the anticipation, Stallone revealed the new ring he made for the forthcoming actioner on his Instagram.
