Sylvester Stallone and Jason Statham team up again in The
Expendables 4 trailer. The upcoming movie will find Stallone's Barney Ross
handing things off to Statham's Lee Christmas as part of Stallone's last
appearance in The Expendables franchise. Dolph Lundgren, Randy Couture, and
Megan Fox also star in the film.
In the latest entry of the long-running action franchise,
the old timers and newbies charged with averting World War III by taking out
“terrorists [who] have taken possession of nuclear missiles on a cargo ship off
the coast,” explains Andy Garcia in the requisite expository voiceover. In
between quick cuts of an armada of heavy machinery and firearms, the trailer
includes Statham and Fox battling it out in their apartment and Stallone
flipping an assailant over a bar.
Returning to the franchise along with Stallone and Statham
are Dolph Lundgren and Randy Couture, joined by a new generation of Expendables
including Fox, 50 Cent, Garcia, Tony Jaa, Iko Uwais, Jacob Scipio and Levy
Tran.
In a recent THR cover story, Stallone talked about
Expendables 4, saying, “I heard it turned out pretty good. Jason Statham is 80
percent of it. He’s happy with it.”
The official synopsis for the film reads: “The Expendables
are the world’s last line of defense and the team that gets called when all
other options are off the table. But new team members with new styles and
tactics are going to give ‘new blood’ a whole new meaning.”
It has been nearly a decade since the last Expendables film.
The first three Expendables outings, released in 2010, 2012 and 2014, have
collectively grossed an impressive $800 million at the global box office.
Lionsgate will release The Expendables 4 on Sept. 22.
