Jackie Chan Confirmed To Join The Cast Of ‘The Expendables 3’

There’s been plenty of rumors regarding who would be joining the cast of the next film in The Expendables franchise. Many of these rumors have been shot down but we now have our first confirmed new cast member. At a press conference promoting his new movie CZ12, Jackie Chan has confirmed that he will be in the next film after being offered a role by Sylvester Stallone.

“Sly had invited me to be in The Expendables 2 but I was too busy filming CZ12 and couldn’t make a commitment to the film. But he did extend his invitation to the third movie, which I agreed on the condition that I will be appearing as more than just a minor role with a few scenes.”

Chan also revealed that he has told Stallone that he hoped the next film would “run along the lines of a ‘buddy-buddy’ movie if he’s in it, to which Sly obliged. The script for The Expendables 3 is currently in the works and we could possibly begin to hear even more casting announcements soon.
