Expendables 2 Is At $234 Million Worldwide!!!

09/11/2012

Box Office Mojo has updated the global results for Expendables 2 and it's EXCELLENT news!! EX2 has now brought in $158.4 Million internationally and that combined with the $75.9 Million domestic haul puts EX2 at $234.3 Million Worldwide!! Expendables 2 is now just $40 Million away from matching the $274 Million dollar take of the first film. Just imagine if EX2 could have had a better start domestically....

Der had this to add:
The Expendables 2 returned to the No. 1 box office spot on the foreign theatrical circuit thanks to a mighty opening round in China, the results of which came in Monday. First round in the market threw off an estimated $25.2 million for the action sequel, pushing the film’s total weekend take overall to an estimated $37 million. Biggest markets outside China remain France, Brazil and Australia.

SIGN A PETITION TO HAVE STEVEN SEAGAL IN EXPENDABLES 3!!

ANOTHER NEW UNIVERSAL SOLDIER POSTER

Thank You To: defff, John & Der

Like I said recently, the foreign numbers were way ahead of the first movie's opening and I had a strong feeling that this movie could at least reach the numbers of the first one, if not surpass it. Now it looks like it has a shot!

Does this mean Expendables 3 is a for sure thing now Patrick?

Patrick

Nothing in Hollywood is 100% certain but its 99% certain yes. It's likely to see a smaller budget and possibly another debate on the rating (hopefully not)....but otherwise yes Expendables 3 is all but assured.

This is excellent news despite the fact that it's domestic gross is slowly but surly getting there. I do see this film by the end of it's theatrical run reach the first movies gross maybe even surpass it and get into the $300 million range.
Looks like part 3 will be made for sure.

you want a sure fire way for Expendables 3 to be a massive hit at the box office? 2 words "Dwayne Johnson" Look what he did for the Fast and Furious franchise, and he's now the center point of the GI Joe franchise. He's the biggest action start in the world at the moment

Patrick

Agreed. Dwayne Johnson would be a HUGE boost for Expendables 3. We all love our classic action stars but a few of the new ones like Dwayne Johnson need to be added for the younger generation.

And why not a petition for Dwayne Johnson in "Expendables 3" ?

Johnson

It would be great for Dwayne to play a villian in EX3. Damn, imagine a Johnson Vs Schwarzenegger throwdown!

Fuck Yah Hopefully EX3!!! And hell yah guys The Rock is my favorite star. Steven seagal is not that thin lol but hope he joins. Universal Soldier posters are badass.

09/11/2012 22:27

I agree with both Patrick and Stevenson "The Rock" is NEEDED.

Stallone, Schwarzenegger, Van Damme, Willis, Lundgren, Statham, Li, Cage, Seagal, Russell, Gibson, Diesel, and The Rock in EX3.

Harrison Ford cameo.
But most importantly sign the Rock!!

These artworks of UniSol look so cheap and nothing like the original spirit of the franchise... I'm still curious about the movie though

Nice news for EX2, I've seen it 3 times already, including the premiere in Paris, and may go a last time this week so I've done my part hehe!

Great news indeed. I can really see EXP 2 passing the 300 million $ bar. It hasn't even opened in Japan yet...

Lau

Cool! If you look at the box-office numbers in foreing markets, you can notice that the results from China are not included in the $158.4 internationally. Moreover, Expendables 1 earned $10.8 millions in Japan while Exp.2 will only be released on 20 October in that country. You can also add an extra $10 millions domestically and normally the movie will get into the $300 ranch!

The 25 millions of China are included in the 158,9.

Lau

25 millions of China are NOT included in the total $158.9 millions of Box Office Mojo. Look at the detail of the figures per country and you will see -:)

I would prefer Snipes in EX3, Seagal can't really do anything anymore. Stallone should first reach out to Snipes and Kurt Russell, then go for some younger blood like Tony Jaa and Iko Uwais. Also, they need to go back to using squibs and pyrotechnics, none of this CGI nonsence.

John

09/12/2012 04:20

Great news. However, by my reckoning, China's figures haven't been added to the Mojo box office figures yet, and the UK and a few others aren't quite up to date (like a week behind updates), so by the next update in full I believe EX2 will have just gone past EX1's worldwide takings!! YAY!

Nico

09/12/2012 07:15

Stallone, Schwarzenegger, Willis, Lundgren, Statham, Li, Seagal, Cage, Eastwood and The Rock in EX3. It would be great :) :D

Van Damme in EX3: great idea from Ale 10 (vandammefan.net):

"Claude must not be a vilain.He should play Vilain's separated twin brother who wants revenge for the murder of his parents who were killed by the gang that Vilain was working for, since he was taken by them when he was a baby and they brought him up to be a ruthless killer. So it would have been the gang that would take the plutonium and give Vilain his money worth but since Vilain is dead and the plutonium missing they go looking for it.When they find out that the plutonium is kept by the Expendables they go for killing them and capture it.So during a bar scene were a couple of relaxed expendable members get unexpectedly attacked by some of the gang members, Claude comes out of nowhere and saves their lives like Harmonica did with Frank in "Once Upon A Time In The West".So then he explains that he's Vilain's brother and his parents were killed by Vilain's gang and he knows everything about them so he could give them informations about the gang or even work as an undercover pretending to be Vilain like Mikail's brother in Maximum Risk in order to help the Expendables kill the gang...It would be interesting if this time The expendables were the hunted ones, it would be also interesting if a member of the expendabes was taken as a hostage or aomething like that... "

I really hope seagal isn't in Expendables 3. He's such a douche in real life. Plus this wouldn't make for the best poster...
