4. Clint over at Moviehole got a scoop stating that Dolph Lundgren wasn't the first choice for Sylvester Stallone's The Expendables . Apparently Jean Claude Van Damme turned down the role and Sly went to Lundgren as his second choice.

The reason Van Damme rejected the film?

He doesn't like to share screen time.

Jean Claude - are you kidding?

Word on the street is that Arnold Schwarzenegger has been offered a role, but the chances of him appearing in the film are slim.

However, you never know!
