Is Hulk Hogan the latest addition to Sylvester Stallone's star studded 'The Expendables 4?'
It appears that the infamous wrestler might just be the most recent character to the roster of action stars involved in 'The Expendables' franchise. In one of his responses during the Q&A session at the Body Pro Expo in Birmingham, England, Hogan revealed that he and Stallone have been discussing the feasibility of him joining 'The Expendables' team.
"Was talking on the phone with Sly [Stallone] about doing The Expendables 4," the Hulkster revealed during the session. He then went on to say, "We're trying to figure out a way to maybe turn me into the most evil man in the world."
"Y'know, Stallone gave me my first break and he's been a great friend," Hogan shared, referring to the breakout role he landed in 'Rocky III,' named Thunderlips, in 1982. "We had a great conversation, talking about the possibilities. Can I still run, can I still jump? Well, not as fast or not as high, but I think Hollywood could find a good stunt man to help me out," the WWE Hall of Famer revealed (via Uproxx).
Meanwhile, Hogan is currently busy with getting back in shape following a personal challenge issued by Vince McMahon. "I'm training for it. I've got the indoor attendance record with Andre the Giant, 93,000 people and I talked to Vince McMahon and he's going to break the record next year," shared the wrestler.
He added, "So, I told Vince I've got a big problem with that, I need to be card wrestling somebody. He challenged me to get in shape for WrestleMania, so that's what I'm doing now. I'm down to 295 now. That's how much I weighed when I was in high school. Trying to get ready, brother."
Apart from Stallone, action stars of 'The Expendables' franchise include Dolph Lundgren, Chuck Norris, Jason Statham, Terry Crews and Arnold Schwarzenegger. In 'The Expendables 3,' however, younger actors like Ronda Rousey and Kellan Lutz were given the spotlight. While the said film still performed well, it appears that the public appreciates the classic action stars more than the new one. Hence, Hogan would make the perfect addition to the cast.
