Thursday, March 12, 2009 at 1:26AM Cordelia Chase and Austin 3:16 Now 'Expendables'
Two more names have been added to the ever-expanding Expendables cast. Say howdy to "Stone Cold" Steve
Austin and Charisma Carpenter. Variety reports that the wrestler-turned-actor and the actress-turned-desperate-Playboy-poser have signed on to Sly Stallone's new ensemble blow 'em up. Guess which one will play his love interest.

In all, 36% of Hollywood will now have cameos or character parts in The Expendables, which will begin shooting very
soon, with a 2010 release date in the works. In addition to "Stone Cold," Carpenter, and Stallone, The Expendables
will star Jason Statham, Jet Li, UFC fighter Randy Couture, Mickey Rourke, Dolph Lundgren, Forest Whitaker, Eric Roberts, and Danny Trejo,
and will feature a cameo by Arnold Schwarzenegger.
Man, that's a big cast. You worry that there won't be enough mono-syllabic dialogue to go around.
I think a supporting role suits Austin best. He doesn't have a lot of colors on his palette, but the one he usually paints
with is great. So stick with that. You're not a leading man (*cough* The Condemned). By the way, speaking of The
Condemned, does anybody else feel like the only thing missing from this movie is Vinnie Jones?

Very nice cast. I think I might go see it.
