Jackie Chan Joins Expendables 3

 The Hong Kong star confirms his more than a minor role in the latest installment the Sylvester Stallone franchise, as he readies another action-comedy a week after describing the genre as one he “dislikes most.”

The next installment of The Expendables franchise will now take on a more distinct Chinese flavor, with Jackie Chan joining the Sylvester Stallone project in what the Hong Kong star described as a significant role.

 In April 2012, Steven Seagal said that he had been offered a role in a third film.In August 2012, producer Avi Lerner confirmed that Nicolas Cage had been signed for the potential sequel. He also stated that the producers were intending to bring back the series' current stars, attempting to have Rourke reprise his role, had already approached Clint Eastwood about a role, and had plans to pursue Harrison Ford and to approach Wesley Snipes following his release from prison.


Stallone said: "We are thinking about different concepts the third one is the hardest. The second is the natural progression. The third, that’s when the air gets rare. We’re thinking ambitiously about it... You now have to give audiences something they don’t expect at all – maybe even going into a different genre." In the same month, Norris said that he would not return for a sequel. Expendables 3 Release Date Is Still Unknown
