THE EXPENDABLES 5: OLD BLOOD (2026) 

They were built for war… now they’re battling the ghosts of their own past.
Barney Ross (Stallone) pulls the old crew back together for one shadow op nobody wants credit for. A betrayal from someone who knows every scar, every kill, every secret they’ve buried. The mission is simple on paper—stop a ghost from the past before he burns everything down—but nothing stays simple when the enemy has your playbook.
Explosions tear through frozen mountain passes and sun-blasted desert strongholds, but the real war is inside: aging joints that ache before the fight even starts, guilt that weighs heavier than any rifle, and a brotherhood that’s been tested too many times. Jason Statham’s Lee Christmas is still the fastest knife in the room, but you feel every year in the way he hesitates half a second longer, the way his eyes carry ghosts he never talks about. Dolph Lundgren’s Gunnar is quieter now, more lethal, every move carrying the weight of a man who’s outlived too many friends.
This isn’t just guns blazing and one-liners. It’s legacy bleeding out—old blood calling in debts, forcing these legends to face what they’ve buried under decades of missions and medals. The action is still brutal and relentless: bone-jarring hand-to-hand, high-speed chases through collapsing canyons, sniper duels across moonlit ridges. But the heart is in the quiet moments—shared glances, half-spoken regrets, the unspoken promise that if one falls, they all go down fighting.
If you love gritty action with real soul, this is the brutal, emotional gut-punch you’ve been waiting for.
“We’re not fighting to survive. We’re fighting to remember who we were.”
