Inevitably, there might be mild spoilers here. But we might just have found out how The Expendables 2 opens…
If you ever wondered whether Arnold Schwarzenegger, Bruce Willis and Chuck Norris would ever share the screen together, then you may finally have your answer.
Over at The Legend Of Chuck Norris, they’ve got their paws on a Japanese film magazine (Eiga Hiho), which has revealed how The Expendables 2 gets started. With lots of testosterone appears to be the answer.
Apparently, the film kicks off with Arnie’s character being rescued, as he’s being held captive in Burma. Then, up pops Bruce Willis again, to give the Expendables crew another mission to do (or, more to the point, he "forces" them to do it), albeit one that’s supposed to be a bit easier. Which we’re guessing it won’t be.
The piece also confirms that Norris, Arnie and Willis will be sharing the screen. It's not quite De Niro and Pacino in Heat, granted, but it's reason for joy nonetheless.
It seems to confirm that Jean Claude Van Damme is on villain duties for the film, and suggests that Schwarzenegger’s involvement in The Expendables 2 is restricted to the first act of the movie.
We’ll wait and see if all this turns out to be true, of course. But you can find the link to the gloriously-titled The Legend Of Chuck Norris here.
