The last poster for The Expendables 2 was an almost grindhouse inspired piece throwing back to the 80's, complete with manufactured creases and worn edges. Now a new banner might stir some controversy as it recreates The Last Supper, but using the entire cast of the film with guns drawn at the ready. What some people won't realize though, is that some of these action stars are old enough to have been at the infamous dinner with Jesus himself (the more you know!). In all seriousness though, the poster is a bit silly, but I wouldn't expect anything less from a film with this kind of cast, and the ridiculous action everyone wants.

Here's The Last Supper poster for Simon West's The Expendables 2 from Collider:

Mr. Church reunites the Expendables for what should've been an easy job, but when one of their men is murdered, their quest for revenge puts them deep in enemy territory and up against an unexpected threat.

The Expendables 2 is directed by British filmmaker Simon West, of movies like Con Air, The General's Daughter, Lara Croft: Tomb Raider, Purple Mountain and The Mechanic previously. The screenplay was written by Sylvester Stallone, who directed the first one but not this one. Lionsgate is releasing Expendables 2 from Millennium Films / Nu Image starting on August 17th later this summer. You in for this one!?
