The Expendables 3 adds Kelsey Grammer

Kelsey Grammer has joined The Expendables 3 as an ex-mercenary who aids the heroes on their mission. Filming is currently underway in Bulgaria so this is a bit of a late addition. Originally the role was supposed to have Nicolas Cage, but it now has gone to Grammer.

So far the cast includes Sylvester Stallone, Jackie Chan, Harrison Ford, Mel Gibson, Wesley Snipes, Terry Crews, Jason Statham, Dolph Lundgren, Jet Li, Kellan Lutz, and Antonio Banderas. New additions also include Teresa Palmer and Luke Hemsworth.


Kelsey Grammer is probably most recognized for voicing Sideshow Bob on The Simpsons and playing the title character in Frasier. He has recently been starred in the television drama Boss.

Gina Carano to lead female version of The Expendables

This was rumored a couple months ago and I don't think I talked about it. Basically they were talking about doing a female version of The Expendables. Collider had a fantasy cast that I saw back in August, but now we have confirmation that one of their wish girls has been cast to lead the rest of the ladies. That girl is none other than former American Gladiators star Gina Carano.

Carano was most recently seen in the 2011 film Haywire and is currently filming the 6th film in the Fast and Furious franchise. Also as I mentioned before she was one of the stars in the attempted 2008 return of American Gladiators.

As far as the rest of the fantasy cast Collider put together, click the jump to see the other girls they listed.
