Pierce Brosnan to star in 'The Expendables 4'!

As of recently, we have been seeing too much of Pierce Brosnan running into action flicks, with two of them being spy films serving as alternatives for his post-Die Another Day Bond outings that never came to happen for some reason. This time, however, he is joining to the list of all action-star fame. How so? Well, it is very hard to have Sylvester Stallone impressed, so the old man still has it. Guessed it yet? Allow me...


Speaking to ShortList, Brosnan confirmed that he has already held discussions with his Survivor producer Avi Lerner about a role. And that role he might be getting in a film would be none other than The Expendables 4! Of course, he is joining the all-time action star hall of fame.

"Oh, the offer has come in for the next Expendables," he said. "I just worked over in Bulgaria with Avi Lerner who makes them. He said, 'Would you like to be in The Expendables? I'd love to have you', and I said, 'Why not?' So we'll see."
Brosnan added: "I have no idea which one it would be, I just said yes. It could be Expendables 7!"
This is getting pretty interesting. What kind of role would one think Brosnan would be playing? Probably a MI6 agent associated with the expendables team? or downed spy-turned-mercenary? Or probably a villain? But, Stallone said once he wanted a "James Bond" for his action series, and previously have offered Sean Connery for a role in The Expendables 3, which is due to release later this year. But, Connery himself had it declined, stating he is retired from public appearances for good. Who else to get then? Certainly not Roger Moore, who is older than the first Bond, nor Lazenby who is also retired. Dalton might have been in question, but Brosnan was perfect. Why? His films involved most of the actions than any other Bond film did.

Brosnan filming 'Survivor', in character as 'Nash The Watch Maker'.

The Expendables 3 will open on 15th August 2014 in cinemas world-wide. Starring Sylvester Stallone, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Jason Statham, Jet Li, Dolph Lundgren, Mel Gibson, among the others in their respective roles.
