Dolph Lundgren was recently asked in an interview on why he thought Expendables 4 didn’t succeed on the same level as the previous instalments. I think it’s great to hear someone involved in the movie actually speaking honestly:That project had issues from the beginning, and it usually starts with the script, it really didn't have a good script. I'm not playing the lead, so it's hard for me to weigh in on some of the issues, but I know Stallone wasn't involved, like he usually is. He just played a character in it, and when he's in charge, the quality is going to be pretty good, it doesn't drop below a certain level. But he wasn't involved, so I think the problem was with the script, and then the director was replaced, like, a month before shooting. Also, the picture opened during the strike, which wasn't very clever, so they couldn't do any publicity.
He makes valid points with regards to Sly’s screen time and lack of involvement, as well as the strike that prevented any kind of promotion from the cast. Indeed, director Scott Waugh did come in with only four weeks before shooting got underway, and quite a lot changed during that time and even when filming was underway when you listen to his audio commentary on the home release. It’s interesting to note that the director in place before Waugh was never publicly announced, although some fans speculate it was to be the director of the third film, Patrick Hughes.
The most interesting thing Lundgren had to mention, was that Sly is apparently working on a script for a fifth movie. This is the first we have heard anything about this, so it’s best to take his comment with a pinch of salt. The only way I personally can see another movie happening, is if they take things down a notch so it’s not so over-the-top, refrain from using so much CGI and allow all the members to have their moments to shine one last time. Another option could be the transition into a short TV series, focusing on the side characters more and giving some of the bigger names a cameo role here and there. Alas, we shall have to wait and see what the future brings for our action heroes. The thing with The Expendables is to never say never.
Expendables 4 was a big flop. No way a fifth movie is getting made.
ReplyDeleteThis garbage franchise is destined for DTV.

DeleteNo. 4 was one of the biggest flops of the year. Nobody wants to see this crap. There won't be a fifth movie.
ReplyDelete🤣🤣🤣🤣 Stallone is already supposedly working on a 5. So now we know we'll probably be seeing more of your comments in the future.
DeleteIt won't happen. Keep dreaming, you retard.

DeleteEX5... I'd say make it Sly, Arnold and Jason centric. Make these 3 the main characters, and a badass crew along with them... Couture, Lundgren, Snipes, Banderas (these two shouldn't have been lost, they were great additions)... add another badass to the team like maybe Jason Momoa (he can surely act like an badass old school Expendable type, just keep him faaaar away from his Fast X or Aquaman personas) or John Cena (I can see him act out as a crew member) or Liam Neeson or Pierce Brosnan if they want a new kind of old school crew member.
ReplyDeleteSecondly, a good script where the Expendables crew members are actually individuals with separate personalities, personal problems, styles etc and put them together and see the chemistry, or lack thereoff. Its just sad... four movies in and we have never really seen proper team dynamics, we havent seen their separate personalities clash or vibe together... though we had glimpses of this, but that's about it.
Third thing on my personal wishlist... more interesting locations. Have them do a mission in a harsh snowy mountain environment, a cool action scene set somewhere in the USA, a visit to western Europe, or go back to some tropical island to fight a dictator... I am done with either cheapish Bulgaria visuals or a obvious green screen that's supposed to give the illusion they are somewhere else than just the studio.
Do this right and I am ready for yet another try, despite this franchise disappointing me 3 times in a row now xD

ReplyDeleteJust before the EX4 cast was confirmed, Expendables' profile followed Snipes on Instagram. After confirmation, the profile stopped following Snipes. During this period, I remember seeing Snipes promoting a TV series with another guy on his profile. Maybe he wanted to focus on a personal project. What's intriguing is that to this day, Expendables' profile follows Terry Crews.
