Statham & Stallone's Expendables 4 Dynamic Explained

In the past, the Expendables films have primarily focused on a group of individuals working together, but Stallone and Statham have been the main representatives of the series. While Ross is responsible for leading the team, Christmas holds the position of his trusted deputy. Nevertheless, this dynamic is expected to shift in the forthcoming sequel.

Stallone will have a smaller role in The Expendables 4 compared to previous films. He has stated that Statham will play a major role, indicating that Statham is being positioned as the new main character. It appears that Christmas will replace Ross as the leader of the Expendables team. The trailers for the movie heavily feature Statham and the new cast members. While some original cast members are returning, the film mainly features new faces such as Megan Fox, Tony Jaa, Andy Garcia, Iko Uwais, and 50 Cent. The future of the franchise without Stallone is uncertain, but the groundwork is being laid to potentially continue it successfully.
