Talk about unexpected. Kelsey Grammer, the man most people know from Frasier but who I know as Beast from X-Men is extremely close to joining Sylvester Stallone and Co in The Expendables 3. This comes after Stallone and Grammer recently completed work on a drama called Reach Me, so clearly the two got along.
In the film, Grammer is set to play Bonaparte, an ex-mercenary who helps the Expendables on whatever mission they go on next. What sucks, or amazing depending on how you look at it, is that this was the role Nicolas Cage was going to play so now it is safe to say Cage will not be joining the third installment of this high octane franchise unless there is more room for another ridiculous character.
This cast just keeps getting better and better and, if they want to make a fourth, it’s going to be tough to top (all that’s left is Seagal and Cage). In addition to Grammer, The Expendables 3 stars Sly Stallone, Jason Statham, Harrison Ford, Mel Gibson, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Terry Crews, Antonio Banderas, Jet Li, Dolph Lundgren and Wesley Snipes. The film is set to release next year, probably in the fall, so stay tuned for more updates as time goes on.
