A whole team of the biggest action stars are back together later this year in The Expendables 2, including Arnold Schwarzenegger and Sylvester Stallone. However, it sounds like the two veteran action heroes may team up again as Ain't It Cool reports Schwarzenegger is currently looking to star in Summit Entertainment's drama The Tomb, a film that formerly had Bruce Willis attached to star. The story follows a man who has designed an insane high-tech prison that is said to be escape-proof. When he is set up and sent to the very prison he created, he essentially must go up against himself to escape and find retribution.

In addition, Deadline has word that the film, which once had Antoine Fuqua lined up to direct, will now be in the hands of Mikael Hafstrom (The Rite, 1408) who has been circling the project for a little while now. Hafstrom's involvement is more certain that Schwarzenegger's at this point since it sounds like the possibility of reuniting the actor with Stallone again has only been discussed, but nothing official is set in stone yet. Surely plenty of die-hard action fans would love to see these two on the big screen together again, especially if The Expendables sequel delivers more ridiculous, over-the-top, testosterone fueled action.
