'Expendables 4' Cast, Release Date & Rumors: Sylvester Stallone Wants Dwyane Johnson as Villain in Sequel
While final casting details have yet to be revealed on the "Expendables" sequel, "Expendables 4," Sylvester Stallone has expressed who he thinks could make a good addition to the movie. Stallone wants Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson and wrestler Hulk Hogan to be part of the casts.
According to a report from Movie Pilot, Stallone has expressed his interest to work with the WWE star in "Expendables 4." He reportedly also said that The Rock would make a good villain.
Fortunately, The Rock himself has expressed his desire to be in the sequel and also to portray the role of a bad guy. On his Reddit interview last year in August, Johnson had clearly said that he doesn't want to rub shoulders with the good guys in "Expendables 4."
"If you're asking if I would consider being in the EXPENDABLES franchise - then the answer is yes. BUT... I don't want to be on their team and be buddies with them. I don't want to be on their team and be buddies with them. I want to hunt every single one of them down and tell them to 'send your soul to heaven 'cause your ass is mine,'" he said during his "Ask me Anything" portion on Reddit.
The actor even described how his character would be like in the film and who his alliances are. The Rock added on his Reddit post that fellow WWE star Rhonda Rousey, who is part of the "Expendables 3" casts will survive since she will be his character's "training partner." Terry Crews likewise would live since his character would be needing an opponent with "pec popping," something that Crews is skilled at.
Hulk Hogan on other hand has also expressed his interest to join "Expendables 4." As what Stallone suggested, Hogan is also willing to play the bad guy in the sequel. The exclusive video interview below with The Star shows the 62-year old talking about his wrestling plans and about his hope to make a big movie comeback opposite Stallone and the rest of the "Expendables 4" casts. Speaking from his home in Clearwater, Florida, Hulk Hogan, whose real name is Terry Bollea, said he would be happy to be in the movie.
"I'd love to be the bad guy again in a Stallone movie. It would be a lot of fun. There's a bunch of people who have thrown my name around and done stuff. I'd love to read the script. I don't know how many more Expendables they're going to make, so I'd love to be in the next one," he said.
