Here he confirms that the writing process has begun and to expect some new surprises.
Writing EX3 at the moment... there are going to be mountains of surprises..Took the girls riding .. They are loving horses like their folks

He goes on to explain the tone he is shooting for in the upcoming third installment.
EX3 needs NEW blood and more humor.... The films were always meant to be more on the humorous side with moments of drama

Although still only rumored to be a part of the project, the action icon states that he is currently in talks with Jackie Chan for the sequel. He also dismisses any involvement of Steven Seagal.
No S. Seagal, sorry ,but maybe we get lucky with J. Chan! And some young bloods!!!

Closing out the conversation, he goes into what age group and type of characters to expect.
By young I mean 22 to 27. Not big bruisers but tech wizard, super brains and a young woman who is not a sex symbol but funny ,tough,REAL

I agree with the Stallone/Van Damme fight scene, horrible. The money would've been Stathan/Van Damme or Li/Van Damme, not Sly. But, I still enjoyed the movie immensely. If he wanted to bring more comedy, Kurt Russell! He's hilarious. As for a female, maybe bring out Geena Davis? She was dope in The Long Kiss Goodnight.

If he's looking for a tech wizard type character he should get either Shia Labeauf or Jesse Eisenberg. Also if he's looking for a good strong female lead he should go after Amber Heard, I mean of course she's sexy but she's a good actress and she can be tough and dramatic when she wants to be, she'll fit in perfectly in the Expendables. Also too bad Steven Seagal won't be in it, but I really hope Wesley and Nic are still in talks.
