Mickey Rourke is One of ‘The Expendables’

Mickey Rourke is getting parts left and right now, and I couldn’t be happier. Â  The star, and future Oscar nominee, of ‘The Wrestler’ has signed on for a part in Sylvester Stallone’s ‘The Expendables’. Â  Rourke will be playing the go-to guy when it comes to weapons and equipment for the group of mercenaries led by Stallone.

Also in the mix are Jason Statham, Jet Li, Randy Couture, and Dolph Lundgren. Â  Forest Whitaker and Ben Kingsley are in negotiations to co-star.

‘The Expendables’ begins shooting in March in Brazil.

What do you think? Â  Is this becoming the most kick-ass film of 2009? Â  Are there any more mega-men who might join the cast? Â  Will Lundgren, at some point, utter the phrase “I must break you”? Â  Let us know by commenting below!
