Now that Sly Stallone’s love-letter to halcyon action days is less than a month from release, Lionsgate is clearly ratcheting up THE EXPENDABLES profile. Not only did I see Randy Couture and Terry Crews pimpin’ the flick on ESPN today, it appears the studio has just issued 15 official, action-packed new stills from the joint. Scroll down to scope ’em out!
Not sure how you feel, but personal favorites of mine include Sly double firing from his side (above), Li firing an Uzi, Statham rockin’ a pair of throwing knives, and any shot featuring the gorgeous Giselle Itié.
THE EXPENDABLES follows Barney Ross (Stallone), a man with nothing to lose. Fearless and void of emotion, he is the leader, the sage and the strategist of this tight-knit band of men who live on the fringe. His only attachment is to his pickup truck, his seaplane and his team of loyal modern-day warriors. His is a true cynic who describes what he does as removing those hard to get at stains. The team behind him is made up of Lee Christmas, former SAS and a savant with anything that has a blade; Yin Yang, a master at close-quarter combat; Hale Caesar, who has known Barney for ten years and is a long-barrel weapons specialist; Toll Road, a skilled demolitions expert and considered the intellect of the group; and Gunnar Jensen, a combat veteran and an expert in precision sniping who struggles with his own demons.
See who’s EXPENDABLE August 13th!
