The Expendables 3: Official Press Release reveals full cast and plot synopsis

Looks like Sylvester Stallone, Jason Statham, Jet Li, Arnold Schwarzenegger, and the rest of the gang from the first two Expendables are set to return to heavy duty action next year, along with new cast additions Harrision Ford, Wesley Snipes, Antonio Banderas, and Mel Gibson for one intense and personal adventure with The Expendables 3!

As seen in Slash Film and other movie news sites, Lionsgate and Stallone have released the official press release for the upcoming new sequel as production officially begins this month, revealing who's set to appear (minus Bruce Willis of course), as well as what exactly the plot is and what kind of villain Mel Gibson plays versus Sly's Barney Ross and his ragtag team of Expendables!

The Expendables 3 loses Bruce Willis, but gets Harrison Ford, Mel Gibson, and Antonio Banderas

3 legendary names in Hollywood and the action film business have joined Sylvester Stallone's "Pure Testosterone Action" club, and it looks like we're in for some heavy hittin' awesomeness come next year!

After rumors and reports of their participation swirling for months, it's now official that Harrison "Indiana Jones/ Han Solo" Ford, Mel "Martin Riggs/ Braveheart" Gibson, and Antonio "El Mariachi/ Puss in Boots" Banderas will be joining Sly, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Jason Statham, and the rest of the gang for "The Expendables 3"! The news comes via Superherohype and Entertainment Weekly, and is pretty much looking good for fans of these guys itching to see a reunion of sorts for some very familiar names in Action Movie History.

Uniting many familiar names from the action hero genre together, this will be the third film in the franchise set to be released by next August, and we can only wonder where Barney Ross and his ragtag crew of mercenaries will do next! What's confirmed is that Mel will be playing the villain, much like what he's doing this year for Machete Kills.

On the other hand, it appears Bruce Willis isn't saddling up for a return as Church for the new sequel, as he and Stallone haven't come to an agreement and it didn't pan out. Read more on the story via Superherohype's article here. Rumors are also swirling that Wesley Snipes, Steven Seagal, and Jackie Chan may join the club, but we'll have to wait for more official word on that in the future.

The Expendables 3 is set for release on August 15, 2014.

Escape Plan: Stallone and Schwarzenegger team up to escape a tough prison

Sylvester Stallone and Arnold Schwarzenegger.

Rambo and Commando.

Rocky and The Terminator.

They're two of the biggest names in Action Hero film history, and back in the day, made a lot of people want to see the films they starred in just by their names alone. They've appeared together for the first time thanks to Stallone's testosterone action hero love letter team up film that was The Expendables and it's sequel, The Expendables 2. However, Schwarzenegger's role there was more of a cameo than a co-star, so it technically doesn't count.

All that changes this year however, as Sly and Ahnold have to work side-by-side to escape the toughest prison ever built, in a new action thriller that'll test their skills and limits - Escape Plan.

Via IGN, here's the very first trailer to the film.
