The first trailer is here for The Expendables 2, which sees more legendary action stars on screen, some for the first time – in an explosive follow up to Sylvester Stallone‘s 2010 mega-hit which made old school action cool again. Now with Simon West (The Mechanic) in the director’s chair – we can expect some impressive visuals and well choreographed action. This should bode well for the film’s driving force Sly – who last time was severely injured fighting his big confrontation scene with Stone Cold Steve Austin.
The teaser doesn’t get into the plot, or even show off any major action set pieces – it’s more of a promo for look how many big action stars are in this flick – by the end you should be mighty satisfied – if over the top, ‘classic action movie star team-ups’ are you’re thing.
The film also stars Jason Statham, Jet Li, Dolph Lundgren, Chuck Norris, Terry Crews, Randy Couture, Liam Hemsworth, Jean Claude Van Damme, Bruce Willis, and Arnold Schwarzenegger.
Here’s the synopsis:
The Expendables are back and this time it’s personal… Barney Ross (Sylvester Stallone), Lee Christmas (Lee Statham), Yin Yang (Jet Li), Gunnar Jensen (Dolph Lundgren),Toll Road (Randy Couture) and Hale Caesar (Terry Crews) — with newest members Billy the Kid (Liam Hemsworth) and Maggie (Yu Nan) aboard — are reunited when Mr. Church (Bruce Willis) enlists the Expendables to take on a seemingly simple job. The task looks like an easy paycheck for Barney and his band of old-school mercenaries. But when things go wrong and one of their own is viciously killed, the Expendables are compelled to seek revenge in hostile territory where the odds are stacked against them. Hell-bent on payback, the crew cuts a swath of destruction through opposing forces, wreaking havoc and shutting down an unexpected threat in the nick of time — six pounds of weapons-grade plutonium; enough to change the balance of power in the world. But that’s nothing compared to the justice they serve against the villainous adversary who savagely murdered their brother. That is done the Expendables way….
