Rex Features

Dolph Lundgren has said that an update to forthcoming film The Expendables could transpire.

The Swedish actor signed on in November to reunite with his Rocky IV co-star Sylvester Stallone, who has written and directed the tale of an elite team sent to South America to overthrow a dictator.

The 51-year-old explained that Stallone has not officially confirmed a follow-up, but he believes that audiences will want to see a sequel, Movie Web reports.

He stated: "[Stallone] hasn't mentioned a sequel. But people are obviously talking about it. Stallone is huge on sequels. I don't know what is going to happen. Even so, I think people are going to love this film. And want another one.

"They are going to be thrilled by what they see on that screen. Especially when I am going up against Sly. We are both friends and enemies in this movie. I think it's going to be really good."

Stallone, Arnold Schwarzenegger and Bruce Willis recently filmed a scene together for The Expendables, which is scheduled to open in cinemas on August 20, 2010.
