Mel Gibson, Antonio Banderas Join ‘The Expendables 3’

Briefly: Just days after Sylvester Stallone revealed that Harrison Ford had joined The Expendables 3, and that Bruce Willis was “greedy” and “lazy” and would not be returning, the Patrick Hughes directed film has added two more players.

Stallone revealed today that Mel Gibson has signed on for a role, and will play the film’s antagonist. Antonio Banderas has also joined the project, though his role has not been specified.

The cast of The Expendables 3 keeps getting bigger and bigger, and I’m starting to wonder if the film can fit this many stars. The Expendables 3 has already added Jackie Chan, Nicolas Cage, Milla Jovovich, Wesley Snipes, and Harrison Ford to the crew, and I’m sure we’ll see even more additional casting before production wraps. Let us know what you think of the latest news, and if you’re looking forward to the film! The Expendables 3 hits theatres on August 15th, 2014.
