Expendables 2 adds Chuck Norris and John Travolta

The head of a Bulgarian film studio where The Expendables 2 is to start shooting in September has name-checked a few new actors who will be appearing in the film.

As well as adding John Travolta and Chuck Norris to the list of stars, Varod also talked of director Simon West in glowing terms.

“He is also a name. He is already here and has started working on the film,” Varod said, before adding. “I believe the sequel will be better than the first movie."

It was already widely reported that Jean-Claude Van Damme would play a secondary villain in the film, with Willis the main baddie.

Here's hoping Travolta also pulls villain duty so we can see more of what made Face/Off such a great action flick.
