Expend4bles Movie Cast & Characters:
- Jason Statham as Lee Christmas: The team’s knife expert and second in command. As Stallone was looking to pass the franchise’s lead on to Statham, he did about 80% of all filming, oversaw post-production, and served as a producer.
- Sylvester Stallone as Barney Ross: The leader of the Expendables. Stallone confirmed that the film would be his final appearance as Barney Ross, with Statham expecting to take over the series after his departure. Due to this, his role in the film was limited.
- Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson as Easy Day, a new member of the Expendables and former Army Special Forces operator.
- Megan Fox as Gina, a CIA operator and member of the Expendables as well as Christmas’ girlfriend.
- Dolph Lundgren as Gunner Jensen: A volatile member of the team, undone by years of combat stress. Lundgren stated that his character has been sober for several years now and is on a philosophical soul search.

- Iko Uwais as Suarto Rahmat, a mercenary and the secondary antagonist working with Ocelot.
