Confession time here, the wife and I have been fans of Dolph Lundgren since way back when. We even dug him in THE PUNISHER. The man is one of the rarest of action stars. He has the brawn yet he is also an incredibly smart guy which makes for a very unique action hero. And yes, Mr. Lundgren brings that quality back to the silver screen as he returns in this explosive sequel.
When Dolph and I spoke at the junket for his latest feature THE EXPENDABLES 2, we talked about giving his character a whole lot of smarts. In fact, the fun of this sequel is how they incorporate much of the stars real life characteristics to their reel life counterparts. Dolph also opens up about his thoughts about the rumors the film would be rated PG-13… let’s just say he loved the idea about as much as most of you did.
THE EXPENDABLES 2 opens this Friday at a theatre near you.
“… I think we should go for a hard R like the first one… this is even better, even harder.”
