10 Obvious Expendables 4 Castings That Need To Happen

It is almost shocking that Vin Diesel hasn't been approached to star in The Expendables series already. He's easily one of the most decorated action movie stars in the business, and not only because of his formative protagonist role in the Fast/Furious franchise.

Diesel's resume is jam-packed with iconic movie characters, with the likes of Dom Toretto, Groot, Riddick and Xander Cage to name just a few.

Thanks to this, he almost feels overqualified, as he'd have to enter into a leading role. Otherwise, it would feel like a missed opportunity.

There's no doubt that he comes across as a convincing badass, and his middle-age would make him fit perfectly well into the ranks of The Expendables. He's old enough to feel storied but young enough to feel fresh, making him an ideal addition to what will likely be the most star-studded movie in the entire series.
