The Expendables 4 Release Date
The Expendables 4 finally has a release date. After years of planning, Lionsgate has set September 22, 2023 as the release date for the long-awaited sequel. Given that Warner Bros. is also planning an unnamed DC film to be released on the same day, it may face stiff competition.
The company has chosen three release dates for 2023, according to Deadline. About My Father, a Sebastian Maniscalco drama starring Robert De Niro, will be released on May 26, and an unnamed comedy picture will be released on June 23.
The Expendables 4 is directed by Scott Waugh, with a screenplay by Spenser Cohen and Max Adams. Kevin King-Templeton, Les Weldon, and Yariv Lerner are the movie’s producers. Jason Statham, Sylvester Stallone, Randy Couture, and Dolph Lundgren reprise their roles from earlier films. Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson, Megan Fox, Tony Jaa, Andy Garcia, and Iko Uwais are recent additions to the cast.

Will Dwayne Johnson be in The Expendables 4?
As the film’s antagonist, Dwayne Johnson will seek to track down the Expendables, persuade them to send their souls to paradise, keep Caesar alive as his peck-popping foe, and keep Luna alive as his training partner. Although it is unknown whether Stallone has spoken with Jack Nicholson, he wishes for him to join the cast.
It’s unlikely, though, given that Nicholson explicitly stated that he had no interest in appearing in films with explosions after his retirement rumors surfaced.

Who is the villain of Expendables 4?
Iko Uwais, a legend of Indonesian martial arts, will be the enemy in The Expendables 4, and he may represent a brand-new type of threat for the mercenaries to face. After a lengthy absence, the action hero group will return to theaters in 2022, presumably avoiding the PG-13 rating that proved to be the series’ downfall in The Expendables 3.
Sylvester Stallone, Jason Statham, Dolph Lundgren, Randy Couture, and other franchise veterans are returning, along with new cast members Uwais, who plays the villain, 50 Cent, Megan Fox, and Tony Jaa from Uwais’ Triple Threat.
Uwais, an Indonesian Silat maestro, known for starring in The Raid movies and many other incredible martial arts flicks, is undoubtedly a fantastic addition to the Expendables franchise. While The Night Comes For Us has been the only genuine opportunity Uwais has had to shine as a villain, The Expendables 4 has the potential to change that and portray him as a truly dangerous nemesis. Uwais may vary significantly from the other antagonists in The Expendables series.
According to behind-the-scenes images, Uwais and Lee Christmas (Jason Statham) will engage in combat in The Expendables 4. Additionally, there’s a good chance Tony Jaa and Uwais will square off, depending on whose side he’s on. This would repeat their brief but fierce fight in Triple Threat, cut short when their characters allied.
Given that Uwais is one of, if not the most recognized Silat exponent in action movies today, the villain in The Expendables 4 may be the one who is most willing and even ready to engage in hand-to-hand fighting with his foes.
