Female Expendables Spin-off In Development Titled ‘The Expendabelles’

An all-female version of the action movie ‘The Expendables’ has been in the works, and producer Jeffrey Greenstein gave an update on the film to the Hollywood Reporter.

“We’d been trying to develop The Expendabelles, a female version of The Expendables, but my problem with that project was always trying to find a way to justify why we’d have a woman team,” said Greenstein. “Instead of trying to explain that, why not just have women on the regular team and [they’re] badass? Instead of having to explain why a woman character got there and all that, you just do what you’d do with a man: show them kicking ass.”

Greenstein was then asked whether or not the shift in more female-led and focused films from the Millennium was due to the fact that the audiences for films have shifted.

“It’s a good point. The 80s, 90s action films were predominantly male-driven,” Greenstein said. “I think it’s a generational thing. The younger demographics are dominating the box office now. They are more progressive, they are more open, they are more story-focused. They don’t make a distinction between man or woman, as long as you give them a character that’s awe-some. They go for it.”
