The Expendables 2 may cast John Travolta and Chuck Norris
We haven't heard much on the status of The Expendables 2 lately, although a few new names have been mentioned to star in the sequel. Nu Boyana Studios CEO David Varod said in an interview that Chuck Norris and John Travolta will co-star in The Expendables 2, which is apparently shooting at Nu Boyana Studios in Bulgaria. Here's an excerpt from his interview below, where he mentions some of the confirmed actors to star in the sequel.

"Sylvester Stallone, Jason Statham, John Travolta, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Chuck Norris, Jean-Claude Van Damme, Dolph Lundgren, Mickey Rourke...who else? Of course, Bruce Willis. The director is Simon West, who is also a name. He is already here and has started working on the film. I believe the sequel will be better than the first movie."


Back in May, we reported that Jean-Claude Van Damme will play a secondary villain in The Expendables 2 alongside Bruce Willis as the main villain. Chuck Norris and John Travolta's names had not been mentioned to appear in The Expendables 2 before this interview ran.

David Varod also indicated that The Expendables 2 will start shooting at Nu Boyana Studios in mid-September.

The Expendables 2 was released August 17th, 2012 and stars Sylvester Stallone, Jason Statham, Jet Li, Dolph Lundgren, Chuck Norris, Jean-Claude Van Damme, Bruce Willis, Arnold Schwarzenegger. The film is directed by Simon West.

    The last one had a couple good scenes, and the rest of the movie was sh*t! I know this one is going to be worse cause their throwing in Noris and Travota!

    First I've heard of Chuck Norris being in it, but had to know that he would pop up sooner or later. John Travolta should be a bad guy.
    @red-ruddy He was great in that movie!

    @2movieguys If you read the article, you'd know Van Damme has already been confirmed for the sequel. As for Russell, there's always the threequel.

    I was watching Cowboys Aliens and yesterday and during it I thought, Harrison Ford and Sean Connery for the Expendables.

    @ROFLitschristian - I get what your saying, he's more of an actor then a action hero. They wanted him to be in the first one, but he couldn't do it. But overall i think it still works, it will probably just be a cameo like Willis & Arnold had in the first one.

    @2movieguys do you even read the article? Jean-Claude Van Damme has already been confirmed. It would be cool to see Kurt Russell in this, I do agree!

    I'm fine with Travolta but Norris-not so much. Walker, Texas Ranger pretty much ruined Norris for me!

    @Number1Wolverine & @rocknrolla Yeah those are great but he just doesn't fit in to me. He's been into 'Family Movies Territory' for a while now and I just can't see him coming back.

    When you write Chuck Norris backwards it reads: "It's Time To Die"...

    They once made a Chuck Norris toilet paper, but there was a problem: It wouldn't take sh*t from anybody.

    Chuck Norris built the hospital he was born in.

    Don't ask Chuck Norris for a joke... you won't survive the punchline

    Travolta would be better as a villain alongside Willis, with Van Damme part of the Expendables.

    Chuck Norris doesn't use a condom. There is no protection from Chuck Norris.
