Lionsgate just confirmed a release date for Stallone’s next movie, “The Expendables”. The film will be released April 23rd, 2010. Look like this will be a big Spring movie where all the college kids are on Spring break, just around that time.
Maybe the film won’t even be PG-13, it could get a PG rating too. Either way. It’s a fact this movie is aiming for the younger generation. While Sly has done mostly “R-rated” violent films for most of his career, Sly knows he has a lot of young fans. When Sly did a PG or a PG-13 movie it is either a drama or family type of film. I don’t think Sly has ever done a PG-13 action flick. He wants an action flick that kids can actually watch. He wants an action film for the whole family.
Since UFC and WWE has mostly young fans, you know both fighting companies will heavily promote this film since this film has WWE’s Stone Cold and UFC’s Randy Couture in the movie. I think this movie will be an automatic box office smash of the year. “The Expendables” could be the “Dark Knight” of 2009. I really do think this movie will be the most successful film of the year.
“The Expendables” will be a lot of fun. I hope Sly makes it a 2 hour film, not a short 90 minute flick. I also wonder who will score the music for the movie, too? I hope he gets a good composer for the film.
