The return of Consumables
With the saga Consumables, it’s been 13 years since Sly, surrounded by other legends of action cinema, traveled the world on explosive missions. The fourth film, Consumables 4arrives in French cinemas on October 11th, and we know that this time Lee Christmas (Jason Statham) is the main protagonist, while Barney Ross (Sylvester Stallone) is more in the background. How will it be received? Released in the United States on September 22, he lived in terrible first weekend at the box office and the critics didn’t notice. Currently, the accumulation of 100 reviews on Rotten Tomatoes is increasing his Tomatometer is at a dismal 13%…
A reception that would mark the end of the saga? Nothing less certainly, given the good idea of the concept Consumables it’s bringing together old action movie stars and new ones, in a game of musical chairs that is the attraction of every new film it largely depends on which actors and actresses are part of it. In case of’Consumables 4, which has all the makings of a transition film with the gradual retirement of Sylvester Stallone, the newcomers are called Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson, Jacob Scipio, Levy Tran and Megan Fox. It is therefore entirely possible that a fifth film Consumables, despite the terrible start of the fourth work, both in Sylvester Stallone’s plans and in the studios. And if that happens, the directorConsumables 4 Scott Waugh is optimistic about it the participation of Jackie Chan.

“I think anything is possible”
This is not a new idea, since Sylvester Stallone asked Jackie Chan to join the cast ofConsumables 2so that ofConsumables 3. It’s obvious that the Chinese actor and director would take his place there, and fans of the franchise are craving it. This didn’t happen, first for scheduling reasons, then because Jackie Chan feared it would happen too little screen timetrying to avoid the simple cameo. So would the fifth movie be the one? Scott Waugh said in the latest episode of JoBlo celebrity interviews :
I think anything is possible. I know Jackie is a big fan of Sly, and Sly has great admiration for Jackie. I think if the planets align in terms of timing, which is always extremely complicated, I really hope we can do it. Would be great.
He would be a really nice addition to the team Consumablesand perhaps the solution to bringing back Sylvester Stallone, who announced in October 2021 that his character would retire after the fourth film.
