Lionsgate Unveils Twelve Character Posters for 'The Expendables 2'

April 26, 2012

So far the hype machine has been relatively quiet for the veteran action ensemble flick The Expendables 2 with only a teaser trailer paving the way for an August release later this year. Surely there will be another full trailer showin up sometime soon, but in the meantime, we have a taste of the entire line-up of meatheads in no less than 12, that's right 12, different character posters that include returning cast members like Sylvester Stallone, Jet Li, Jason Statham and more, along with Arnold Schwarzenegger and Bruce Willis having beefier parts and Chuck Norris and Jean-Claude Van Damme joining the scene.

Here are all 12 of the character posters for The Expendables 2 from various sources around the web:

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!?

    Now im really pissed off. The guys at first showing HAVE been slacking on movie news. Look I get it if your busy or what not BUT HIRE MORE DEPENDABLE PEOPLE. I would have loved to have seen this when it was available. Not a wonder why i've felt that things are slow on this site lately. And no, its not just this. They have missed out bringing good posters, rumors and trailers or were posted LONG after they circled the net. please, get it together FS

This flick is gonna ROCK! I really hope Van Damme and Lundgren get to kick some serious ass and showcase their characters! I still believe Van Damme is poised to steal the flick. I think Lionsgate should secure the services of Van Damme for a multi-picture deal!
