Stallone Courting Whitaker to be ‘Expendable’

November 10th, 2008 in Action, Actors, Directors -

forest460 Following word of the movie being announced, Sylvester Stallone told a crowd at this past week’s American Film Market that he has been heavily courting Oscar-winning actor Forest Whitaker for a role in The Expendables, his next project.

Stallone himself, Jason Statham and Jet Li are all pegged to star in the film about a group of mercenaries on an undercover mission to depose of a Latin American dictator. The Rambo-actor wants Whitaker to play a devious CIA agent involved in the operation.

Shooting for the film is set to begin in February 2009 in Costa Rica and Louisiana.

    Is Dolph Lundgren supposed to be the part of the film what if he is not going to star in the film but other sites said that he is doing the movie,I which that there should be a video game movie called World Heroes and I think that Dolph
    Lundgren should play the villian Zeus in that World Heroes movie.

    Thank You.
