He's hanging up the reigns and giving it to Statham to continue on with the franchise. Don't know how I feel about the fourth.
The Expendables franchise got deballed when they dropped it from an R rated movie to a PG-13 for the third (lowest grossing) installmenet. First they skimped on violence with installment number three and now they’re skimping on the budget on installment number four.
Only seeing it for the nostalgia actors.
Why do movies like this have to be "defanged" for younger viewers? Classic 80s movies like Star Wars and Indiana Jones had burnt-out skeletons, Nazis diced by plane propellers and melted by Acts of God, and THEY had PG or even U ratings!! Hollywood is such a bunch of pussies these days, afraid to offend anyone.
While I agree that the third movie should have been rated R. But that was not the main problem why it was lowest grossing of all. The Problem was the movie leaked a month or so before the release in the cinemas.
