EXPENDABLES 3:Bruce Willis Left ‘Expendables 3′ Over $1 Million-a-Day Fee Demand

Sylvester Stallone let the world know on Tuesday that Bruce Willis was out of the upcoming The Expendables 3 for being “greedy and lazy,” and it seems that laziness was not the primary issue.
An online source says the actor was offered $3 million for four days of work shooting in Bulgaria but said he would drop out if he didn’t get $4 million
Stallone raised eyebrows and suspicion in Hollywood by tweeting “WILL IS OUT . . . HARRISON FORD IN!!!! GREAT NEWS!!!!! Been waiting years for this!!!!,” then following up with a second tweet reading “GREEDY AND LAZY . . . A SURE FORMULA FOR CAREER FAILURE.

Another online source with knowledge of the situation says the fallout was over a specific money demand. Willis was offered $3 million for four days of consecutive work on location in Bulgaria for the film. “He said he’d drop out unless he got $4 million,” this source close to the production says. “A million dollars a day. Stallone and everybody else involved said no.”
Stallone then quickly reached out to Ford(Indiana Jones,Airforce one) who was game to join the Expendables cast.

The source also adds, “I think [Willis] was pretty surprised he was replaced in 72 hours by Harrison Ford — a better actor, a much nicer person and a more interesting direction for the film.”
Willis most recently appeared in Red 2, which has grossed a disappointing $80 million worldwide. Before that, February’s ‘A Good Day to Die Hard’ grossed $305 million. He also had an extended cameo in March’s GI Joe: Retaliation, which grossed $372 million…..A very disappointing movie if you ask me.
The next installment of The Expendables, with a budget of more than $90 million, is set for release August 2014 by Millenium Films. In addition to Stallone and Ford( who is also on the top cast of ‘Ender’s Game’ a Sci-Fi movie billed for release in November this year),

the cast includes Arnold Schwarzenegger, Jason Statham, Mickey Rourke and Wesley Snipes.
$1 million per day?????Sheesh Bruce’s looking to retire from this movie o!.Bruce Willis won’t be missed if I am asked,there’s plenty other ass-kickers to look forward to in this movie.

Harrison Ford too was an action icon in his day.Yes he wasn’t on one of the big gun carriers of the 80′s/90′s like the rest of the Expendables cast,but he is an accomplished actor.
