“Braddock: Missing in Action III” Japanese Theatrical Poster
Looks like Chuck Norris (Slaughter in San Francisco) will no longer be missing in action. The Code of Silence star will be appearing Isaac Florentine’s Blood Brothers, which will be his first acting gig since 2012’s The Expendables 2.
WPI reports that Blood Brothers will uncover the war between the Botswana Defence Force (BDF) and poachers. Being an independent film, Norris and other Hollywood actors will play a few roles and most of the roles will be dominated by Batswana according to the producers of the film.
We’ll keep you posted on Blood Brothers as more information comes. In the meantime, Florentine (Close Range) is currently hard-at-work on Stoic, an action thriller starring Antonio Banderas (The Expendables 3).
I thought Chuck was for all intents and purposes retired. Ever since he finished Expendables 2, he’s kept a relatively low profile and has not talked about doing anymore acting work. He’s talks mostly about his family, religion and politics on his social media platforms. Interesting that he chose an Indie movie to make his return. I’m sure the message behind the movie attracted, but even at his age, I’m sure he could still get work on straight to video action movies.
The source of that story was sorta shady to tell you the truth. As far as Chuck, I think he had a movie planned (not sure if it was before or after Expendables 2), but point is, it never materialized. I guess we’ll have to wait and see.
