'Expendables 4' Movie Casting News: Arnold Schwarzenegger Meets With Producer; Sylvester Stallone Writing; 'Fast & Furious' Actor Dwayne Johnson May Play Villain; Fans Want Action Heroes Not Athletes

Expendables 4' Movie Casting News: There is no confirmation from Sylvester Stallone about production on "The Expendables 4," but that's not stopping the rumors. The latest Expendables 4 rumors say Sylvester Stallone is finally writing the script.

A recent report said Arnold Schwarzenegger, who will be taking on Donald Trump's old job in "Celebrity Apprentice," did a Hollywood Lunch with the franchise's producer Robert Earl.

Arnold and the Expendables producers dined at the E. Baldi restaurant in Los Angeles, according to The Daily Mail. Were they discussing the merits of Hulk Hogan or Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson as villains in the franchise?

Dwayne Johnson recently reportedly said that if he is picked up for "Expendables 4," he wants to be the villain.

"I don't want to be on their team and be buddies with them. F**k that noise," The Rock said. "I want to hunt every single one of them down and tell them to "send your soul to heaven cause your ass is mine."

The future of The Expendables franchise isn't guaranteed because the Sylvester Stallone's aging-action-hero franchise hasn't been making as much money domestically as the older films. Expendables 3 only made $39.3 million domestically.

The Expandables franchise cast famous actors for all their sequels. The Expendables 2 had Jean Claude Van Damme as the bad guy. The Expendables 3 had Hollywood baddie Mel Gibson playing the bad ass. New rumors are centering on Hulk Hogan and The Rock, Dwayne Johnson, who is a fixture in the Fast & Furious franchise.

Hulgan was recently kicked out of WWE after reportedly racist rants, but he's been saying that he talked to Sylvester Stallone about possibly appearing in Expendables 4.

Sly was previously rumored to have negotiated with Hogan regarding a role in "Expendables 4." Hulk Hogan, who had fun with Stallone in "Rocky III," in 1982, hinted that he may be the villain in "Expendables 4." Hogan said he "Was talking on the phone with Sly [Stallone] about doing The Expendables 4."

"Expendables 4" cast rumors also include Manny Pacquiao, Mel Gibson, Antonio Banderas, Harrison Ford, Randy Couture, Dolph Lundgren, Wesley Snipes, Ronda Rousey, Terry Crews, Jet Li, and Kellan Lutz.

A previous report I made on The Expendables got a comment, in Spanish, that Expendables fans are rooting for aging action heroes and not athletes. Throw down with your comments. We're all looking forward to this.
