Forget Batflek. Forget James Spader as Ultron. For my money the strangest casting news to come out of 2013 so far is Harrison Ford in EXPENDABLES 3. Looks like the once notoriously curmudgeonly actor has decided to embrace his more playful side, what with this and the upcoming reprisal of a certain Corellian Smuggler. Check out the first pic from the first day of shooting on the eagerly awaited movie, featuring Arnie, director Patrick Hughes and Ford himself, who appears to have just flown himself to set…

Official Synopsis:

In THE EXPENDABLES 3, Barney (Stallone), Christmas (Statham) and the rest of the team comes face-to-face with Conrad Stonebanks (Gibson), who years ago co-founded The Expendables with Barney. Stonebanks subsequently became a ruthless arms trader and someone who Barney was forced to kill… or so he thought. Stonebanks, who eluded death once before, now is making it his mission to end The Expendables — but Barney has other plans. Barney decides that he has to fight old blood with new blood, and brings in a new era of Expendables team members, recruiting individuals who are younger, faster and more tech-savvy. The latest mission becomes a clash of classic old-school style versus high-tech expertise in the Expendables’ most personal battle yet.

THE EXPENDABLES 3 is set for release August 15th 2014.
