Sylvester Stallone owns one of the magic formulae in movies. Put most, if not all of the biggest action stars in the planet, young and old, together in a movie; have a simple script; bring lots of guns and explosions; and release it to the waiting movie public in a world premiere. So far with three Expendables movies under his belt, he has already earned almost US$800 million in box office receipts worldwide and that there are plans for Expendables 4 and 5 to go into production one after the other.

A female version called the ExpendaBelles is also said to be in the works, though not much information on this project is available yet.

With an expanding Expendables empire, Stallone has set its sights on an Expendables made for TV, agreeing to be the Executive Producer for the series to be developed by Fox according to Deadline. Also co-producing and writing the series are Greg Coolidge and Kirk Ward. While the series is based on the film, there is no indication if Stallone will be starring in it.

There is no cast announced for the series yet, and what others speculating is that those who will be tapped are some of the TV's best known action stars such as Mr. T ("The A Team"). Though there are some speculating that the show will be comprised of younger action stars, but we would rather welcome the series with the older TV guys, including Tom Selleck and Lucy Lawless, if going by the movies' top drawers.

If it’s  going to be TV action stars, then the list is also going to be long, and surely we would welcome to see the Hoff (David Hasselhoff) to be back on the action screen rather than judging talent shows.

Don't expect the Expendable TV series to premiere this year as it is still in the early stages before going into full production. With the promise of more action stars in one show, we can’t wait for it start production.
