The Expendables 4 came very close to breaking a bizarre movie streak that star Sylvester Stallone has been on for 45 years and counting.
SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Summary With The Expendables 4, Sylvester Stallone came real close to breaking a rule he's held onto for 45 years and counting. The Expendables began with great promise, with the Stallone-created saga's mission statement being to unite the most iconic action stars of all time.
There's no need to panic, however, as the ending reveals Barney faked his death to lure a terrorist out of hiding. This isn't the biggest shocker, as the fourth entry did a poor job of convincing viewers Barney was truly dead. A look at Stallone's filmography also reveals that, whether by accident or design, he hasn't played a main character who has died since 1978's F.I.S.T.
Expendables 4 Should Have Killed Barney Ross In that sense, Stallone's 45-year streak remains unbroken. Even though it feels obvious Barney isn't dead, the only time Expendables 4 elicits any emotion is during the character's memorial. While it's sad no past Expendables cameoed for Barney's funeral - like supposed best pal Trench - there's still a certain power to seeing his team mourn for him.
