In the last couple of years, we’ve reported a number of projects riding the success wave of The Expendables franchise. Some are currently filming, other are sitting in development hell. Here’s what we gathered so far: a few female takes (The ExpendaBelles; an untitled Gina Carano flick; and Prison Raid); a B-movie take (The B-Team) and even a satirical take (The Extendables).

One take that’s definitely in the can is the action-comedy The Dependables. If you thought Stallone’s crew were a bunch of old men, check out this cast: Bo Svenson (Walking Tall Part II), Louis Gossett Jr. (Iron Eagle), Seymour Cassel (The Mountain Men), Cedric Smith (Forever Knight), Tom Jackson (Star Trek: The Next Generation) and Margot Kidder (1978’s Superman).

The Dependables is directed by Sidney J. Furie (Iron Eagle, Superman IV) and is currently available for pre-order. We seriously doubt you’ll spend your hard earned money on it, so check out the free trailer.
