Sly Talks Expendables Director’s Cut

Since he and the rest of his hard-nut cast powered The Expendables to solid if not stellar box office success, Sylvester Stallone is naturally still interested in keeping the fire around the movie going. Via his new favourite communication system, Twitter, he’s already announced that he wants Bruce Willis as the villain in a possible sequel and now he’s talking about a director’s cut DVD for the film and a massive Making-Of documentary.

While we’ll have to wait a bit for the extended director’s cut of the film (Sly’s estimate is “about six months”), we’d guess the documentary, Inferno: The Making of The Expendables, will be present and correct on the first DVD release. Keep those dollars flowing, Sly!

So what can we expect from the doc? According to Stallone, “Its hard core – everybodys on it” (sic), and the highlights will include a stunt mishap with Steve Austin and Sly himself getting badly hurt, leaving an injury that requires spinal surgery. They don’t do things by halves, those lads.

He’s also revealed that he’s recorded a director’s commentary for the disc - “turned out great, think you’ll like it,” is his opinion of it, though we hardly expected him to tweet that it’s a boring slog…

There’s no word on when any Expendables disc might hit the shelves, but we expect Sly will keep everyone up to date.
