Will Expendables 5 even happen?
Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Expend4bles director Scott Waugh addressed whether Jackie Chan might appear in Expendables 5. Expend4bles is Waugh’s first movie in The Expendables franchise, having previously come from directing 2014’s Need for Speed. The Expend4bles cast includes Jason Statham, 50 Cent, Megan Fox, Dolph Lundgren, Andy Garcia, and Sylvester Stallone.
Speaking with JoBlo Celebrity Interviews, Waugh was asked whether he thinks Jackie Chan, who has long been desired for The Expendables, would ever enter the franchise. Waugh responded that “anything’s possible” and expressed enthusiasm for Chan’s potential entry into the series. The conditions would eventually come down to the actor's schedule. Check out the full quote from Waugh below:
“Look I think anything’s possible, and I know Jackie’s a huge Sly fan, Sly has such reverence for Jackie as well. I think if the stars align in their schedules, which is always so freaking complicated, I would really hope that we could make that happen, that’d be fantastic.” What Will Expendables 5 Look Like ? A seasoned action star who has been acting for over 50 years, Chan has long been a fan favorite to join The Expendables team. As the Expendables movies featured other action legends, including Arnold Schwarzenegger, Bruce Willis, and Harrison Ford, Chan seemed like a high-profile omission. This was not for lack of trying, as Stallone reportedly tried to recruit Chan for The Expendables 2 and The Expendables 3.
After Expend4bles, the franchise might be looking for new talent again. Unlike previous entries in the franchise, which situated Stallone as the protagonist among copious sidekicks, Expend4bles put Statham at the forefront. This torch passing from Stallone to Statham indicates that The Expendables franchise is changing, and with this shift comes the greater possibility of adding new characters to the mix. Chan, if the franchise is lucky, could be one such figure.
