Sylvester Stallone has given his much desired approval for a new director for The Expendables 3. Who is the lucky guy? According to Deadline, it’s relatively unknown Patrick Hughes. Aside from a few shorts/commercials, Hughes’ work consists of writing and directing the thriller Red Hill. I’m not familiar with his work, but I will be shortly since Red Hill is on Netflix. Then we’ll see if he gets the Action Chick stamp of approval. Stallone has proven to know what he’s doing in the past, so for now we’ll just have to trust that Hughes will do a great job or else Stallone wouldn’t have chosen him. It’s reported that Hughes will begin work on the film this week and production will begin mid-August. Will he be able to pull off a bigger and more epic installment of The Expendables?
This is the Action Flick Chick, and you’ve just been kicked in the ass!
