A little more news on Sylvester Stallone’s The Expendables has surfaced. According to the official blog of the film, the film has 3 more weeks of shooting left. They have also offered a few behind-the-scenes photos of one of the sets and some great info on the characters that the star-studded cast are developing. The latest blog post reads:

The Expendables

“I went a little rogue last night… part of my job is to make sure no one takes photos on set other than the unit photographer. when we are shooting in a public place it’s impossible but on stage or on the back lot at the Louisiana Film Studios you must obey my authoritay!! With over 70 extras it’s not an easy task but I make best effort. Last night I broke my own rule – I took photos on the set. I had to – it is such an impressive set. We are shooting the battle scenes that take place in the courtyard of General Garza’s (DAVID ZAYAS) palace. So I am posting a couple of shots I took with the IPhone I hate…

We have 3 more weeks of shooting left – the majority of which will include all of the guys. One thing I love about Sly’s scripts is that no matter how many heads roll (literally) there’s always an element of humor. Who knew that Jet Li and Seve Austin were funny?? Actually Steve makes me laugh more than anyone on set. He’s a totally anchored to the earth living on a ranch in South Texas kind of guy with a big body and a bigger heart. And a sassy sense of humor. Even when Sly and he are beating the bejesus out of each other.

To while away the hours during night shoots I began doing little impromptu interviews with the guys in between setups. GIves me a chance to get some quotes and find out how they see their characters while giving me a little glimpse into who they are as people. Barney Ross (SLY) is the sage and strategist of the team. Lee Christmas (JASON STATHAM) is former SAS and a savant with anything with a blade. Toll Road (RANDY COUTURE) is the intellect of the group, a skilled and deadly demolitions expert. Hale Caesar (TERRY CREWS) is a long barrel specialist who has been friends with Barney for over 10 years. Ying Yang (JET LI) is a master at close quarters combat, who because of his size is the brunt of jokes from the bigger guys. But they all know he can be as deadly with a kick as they are with traditional weapons. Gunnar (DOLPH LUNDGREN) is a combat veteran and an expert at precision sniping. He’s also the problem child of the group.

No news on Church. Oh and the guy who said my blog is poorly written…piss off!!”

Some news in regards to Sylvester Stallone’s The Expendables has surfaced. According to  the official blog of the film, it appears that a few rewrites have occurred and that Brittany Murphy’s character has been written out of the film. The good news is that we may soon see some behind-the-scenes footage from the film. An excerpt from blog post reads:

“The script went through a re-write and Brittany Murphy’s character was deleted.  there’s no teaser trailer yet but we do have 60 seconds of BTS footage I was hoping to post but there is some debate as to whether that helps or hurts the marketing and publicity plan by peaking interest too early.  I don’t understand that thought process – I see it differently…but I don’t call the shots.  So we shall see or rather you shall see, hopefully.”

The Expendables was written by Stallone, who is also set to direct the project. which focuses on a group of mercenaries heading to South America to overthrow a ruthless dictator.

The star-studded cast includes Randy Couture, Danny Trejo, Dolph Lundgren, Jet Li, Stone Cold Steve Austin, Mickey Rourke, Terry Crews, Arnold Schwarzenegger (in a cameo as himself), and Eric Roberts.

It seems that almost as fast as he was added, 50 Cent is now out of the cast of Sylvester Stallone’s upcoming action film The Expendables. Late last week, the veteran rapper had been confirmed to be replacing Forest Whitaker as Hale Caesar. Now the role appears to be going to Terry Crews.

MTV reports that a representative for 50 Cent issued a statement Tuesday (March 24) explaining why the MC will not be appearing in Sylvester Stallone’s film:

“50 Cent was offered the role of Hale Caesar in ‘The Expendables,’ however as he is currently in the process of completing his forthcoming album Before I Self Destruct with Dr. Dre and Eminem,” a rep for the MC told MTV News in a statement. “He was unfortunately not able to commit to the project.”
