There were a lot of rumors and speculation that Sly Stallone will go back to directing “The Expendables” sequel. Well the man himself, confirms he won’t be helming the flick. However, he will still reprise his leading role as Barney Ross for the sequel.

The plan for the next film is that they want Bruce Willis and Arnold Schwarzenegger to play leading roles for the next one.

It is not known whether or not some of the other cast members will return, but Dolph Lundgren and Jason Statham still want to return to the film. Plus, I’m sure the next movie, will add a bunch more action movie stars.

Deadline, reports.

I still say that Sly’s director replacement should be Dolph Lundgren. I still stand by it.
