While the Expendables 2 filled the screen with as many action legends as possible it still didn’t manage to live up to the hype of the first film, but that hasn’t stopped the rumours about who’ll make the much anticipated third act.

One name flying about is Jackie Chan, with Jason Statham saying he hopes he the kung-fu kicking star will feature in this outing?

The Stath said: “Stallone hasn’t said anything but I hear rumours,” says Statham. “I should never go with rumours because they’re often not correct, but I hear Jackie Chan might be coming to the party and that would make me very happy because I do like Jackie Chan.”

“I like Jackie because I’ve been a friend of Jackie’s forever,” he continues. “He’s broken every bone in his body for his commitment and dedication to doing his own stunts. So he’s the real deal. He is the real deal. He’s my [favourite]. I like Clint Eastwood as well.”

It seems as well that Stallone has managed to convince Nic Cage to join sign up, while Harrison Ford and Wesley Snipes are thought to be others on his hit list.

“There’s a ton,” agrees Statham. “But the thing is, the magic wand comes from Sly.  He will either “yes” you or “no” you. So yeah, Expendables 3. Here we go. Strap yourselves in!”
