While in Cannes this year, we had the opportunity to talk to Jackie Chan, and to ask him about the chances that he'll turn up in The Expendables 3. While excited by the idea, he was a little non-committal on the subject, but is now, according to The Wrap, in “advanced negotiations†alongside Nicholas Cage, Wesley Snipes and Milla Jovovich.This is the first time that Jovovich’s name has cropped up in connection with the movie, though Sly has said that he was looking to add more of a female dynamic to the third outing. And she certainly brings enough arse-kicking credentials from her work on the Resident Evil franchise and elsewhere.As for Chan, Cage and Snipes, they’ve all been talked about for ages, but never seemed to really be in contention. Perhaps we really will finally get to see them all share the screen? A bigger question is can they finally make an Expendables movie that actually lives up to the fun premise?Red Hill director Patrick Hughes is the man charged with carrying out that particular brief, with a start date pencilled in for August.
