The Expendables 4 is a go and casting for the film has apparently started where Professional wrestler Hulk Hogan revealed he might play the villain in the upcoming sequel.

While it has been previously confirmed that there will be Expendables 4 to hit theaters soon, along with it are the names connected to the franchise's latest film. Some of these names are Pierce Brosnan, Floyd Mayweather, and Jackie Chan. Although even with the reports of these names being linked to the film, no confirmation has been released yet.

Recently, wrestler Hulk Hogan said during the Body Pro Expo in Birmingham, England that he talked to Sylvester Stallone and might even land the villain role in the movie.

Hogan and Stallone previously worked together in the 1982 film, Rocky III and might reportedly be sharing the big screen again as Stallone asked the wrestler if he can still run and jump (which the villain in the movie might probably do a lot of).

"Was talking on the phone with Sly [Stallone] about doing The Expendables 4. We're trying to figure out a way to maybe turn me into the most evil man in the world. Y'know, Stallone gave me my first break and he's been a great friend for all these years ... We had a great conversation, talking about the possibilities. Can I still run, can I still jump? Well, not as fast or not as high, but I think Hollywood could find a good stunt man to help me out." Hogan said.

Although there are no reports yet about whether Hogan is already officially on board for the film, it seems like it is really likely as Stallone also negotiated with former co-stars in his films to be part of the cast of the previous films in the franchise. Among them are Dolph Lundgren who Stallone co-starred with in Rocky IV, and Antonio Banderas in Assassins.

No official plot has been released for The Expendables 4 as of this time but it is set to be shown on the big screens in 2016.
