Expendables star Dolph Lundgren has added another action project to his list, as he writes, directs and stars in a wanted man for millennial media
Dolph Lundgren to direct and star in new action film Wanted Man
Film veteran Dolph Lundgren is already busy at the moment, currently working on both Expendables 4 and Aquaman and The Lost Kingdom, but has already added his next film to his schedule with action flick Wanted Man, in which he will participate, write, and direct. The film is being produced by Millennium Media, who are producing the all-consuming fourth film and will be hoping to follow up on the success of their recent releases, even death, shake and the car of Ryan Reynolds, the bodyguard of the killer's wife, and whoever bets on Lundgren does what he does best and delivers the hits in this latest show
The well-known pitch of "wanted man" describes the story as when a cartel shooting causes the death of several DEA agents, an elderly police officer must retrieve an eyewitness and escort her across the border. But when they learn that the attack was carried out by American troops, he must decide who to trust."It sounds like pretty standard territory for Lundgren to excel in his ideal field, and he seems to be in good hands by killing Cupid writer Michael Worth who co-wrote with Lundgren. The film is expected to go into production in February
Lundgren is probably well on his way to 60, but like many of his peers, he shows no signs of slowing down and is easy to handle anytime soon. The Swedish actor has starred in more than 70 action films in his career and already has six films scheduled for release next year including Operation Sea Wolf, the Eighth Division, A man will rise, Expendables 4, Aquaman and The Lost Kingdom and let's not forget his voice role as avenger in Minions: rise of the battleship
Dolph Lundgren will first appear in Castle falls, another film starring and directed by the Swedish actor, which released its first trailer earlier this week. The film sees a group of rival gangsters trying to find 3 million dollars hidden in the soon to be demolished Castle Heights Hospital. They have two hours to find the coins before the building is removed with a pile of dynamite, which obviously leads to a lot of shooting, double crossing and the eventual almighty explosion. Castle Falls is released in theaters and on demand on December 3rd and you can check out the trailer below
Lundgren also appears in Sylvester Stallone new cut of Rocky IV, where he plays the role of Soviet boxer Ivan Drago, who killed Apollo Creed in the ring leading to a grudge match taking place between the blond Beast and Rocky, who came out to avenge the murder of his friend and defend his country. Stallone announced in 2020 that during the covid lockdown, he would be working on a new director's cut for the film, which would feature new footage of the fight between creed and Drago. Originally scheduled for release earlier this year, the new trailer for the film will now receive a one-night theatrical release only on November 11th, and then a digital media release from November 12th

Lundgren received a degree in Chemical Engineering from the Royal Institute of technology in early 1980 and a master's degree in Chemical Engineering from the University of Sydney in 1982. He holds a Rank 4 dan black belt in Kyokushin Karate and was the European champion in 1980-81. While in Sydney, he became a bodyguard for Jamaican singer Grace Jones and began a relationship with her. He received a Fulbright scholarship to the Massachusetts Institute of technology and moved to Boston. Jones convinced him to leave university and move to New York City to be with her and start acting, where, after a short stint as a model and bouncer at Manhattan nightclub spotlight, Lundgren landed a small role for the first time as a KGB henchman in the James Bond movie offer to kill
After appearing in Rocky IV, Lundgren portrayed the man in the 1987 science fiction film masters of the universe, lieutenant Nikolai Petrovich rashchenko in the Red Scorpion (1988) and Castle Frank in the 1989 film The Punisher. Throughout the 1990s he appeared in films such as I come in peace (1990), showdown in Little Tokyo (1991), soldier World Series Films (1992, 2009, 2012), Joshua Tree (1993), men of war (1994), Johnny Mnemonic (1995), silent trigger (1996) and blackjack (1998). In 2004 he directed his first film, defender, and then directed the mechanic (2005), the Missionary Man (2007), driving performance (2009), Icarus (2010), castle falls (2021) and the upcoming film Wanted Man (2023), also starring in all of them
After a long period of performing in direct-to-video films since 1995, Lundgren returned to Hollywood in 2010 with the role of Gunner Jensen in Expendables, along with Sylvester Stallone and the all-action star. He reprised his role in Expendables 2 (2012) and Expendables 3 (2014). Also in 2014, he co-starred in skin trade, a human trafficking thriller he co-wrote and produced. He reprised his role as Ivan Drago in Creed II (2018), and is set to reprise his role as Gunner Jensen in Expendables 4. He appears in Aquaman (2018), playing the role of Mira's father. He also had a recurring role in the fifth season of Arrow as Bratva leader Konstantin Kovar, the main antagonist of the season's flashback storyline
On the set of the James Bond film a view to kill, Jones suggested that he try out a part in the film, which led to his debut in the feature film in which he played a very minor role of a proper KGB henchman named Vince. In the film, Lundgren appears in the scene where KGB general Gogol (Walter Goettel) confronts Max Zorin (Christopher Walken) about leaving the KGB, at a racetrack and ends in a small brawl in which Lundgren's character Vinz points a gun at Zorin. Roger Moore, in his last performance as James Bond, once memorably said, "Dolph is bigger than Denmark".Lundgren found the entertainment business more attractive and rewarding than chemical engineering, so he decided to pursue an acting career despite not having formal training.When he learned that Sylvester Stallone was looking for a majestic fighter to play Ivan Drago in Rocky IV (1985), Lundgren sent videos and photos of himself to a distant contact with Stallone, and eventually reached him. Lundgren tried out for the role, but, as he himself recalled, he was initially rejected because he was too tall
However, he eventually overcame another 5,000 optimists to land his breakthrough role in front of Stallone, Carl Withers and Brigitte Nielsen. To improve his physical fitness and athletic abilities, he trained intensively in bodybuilding and boxing for five months before filming the film. Lundgren said: We were training six days a week—weights in the morning for about an hour, then boxing in the afternoon. We did the chest and back split one day and then the shoulders, legs and arms the next. We boxed for an hour and a half, practiced battle choreography, and did the ABS work bag.He weighed 205 pounds (93 kg) – 245 pounds (111 kg) during filming, but in the film he was described as 261 pounds (118 kg); one publisher said about Drago, he is a huge 261 pounds of a cruel fighting machine, the best that Soviet science and medicine could create his character lines"if he dies, he dies and I must break you are among the most famous Rocky series, often cited in popular culture. Stallone was injured after a fight with Lundgren suggested by Stallone as part of the filming process. Regarding this incident, Stallone said in an interview, I went to the emergency room. My blood pressure was like 290, and they put me on a low-level trip to St. John's hospital where I was put in intensive care because the pericardial sac around my heart was swelling and blocking my heartbeat. I was there, as I said, for nine days surrounded by nuns. Not good. Lundgren later fought in a real boxing match against former fighter Oleg Taktarov, losing by decision. Lundgren highlighted the premiere of the fourth Rocky film at the Westwood movie theater as the moment that changed his life, noting, I walked into the Westwood movie theater as Grace Jones' boyfriend and walked out ninety minutes later as the film's star Dolph Lundgren. I was shocked by the years of the mind-boggling and mind-boggling experience of being a student-athlete from Little Sweden who suddenly had to step up with a new action star personality
In 1987, Lundgren released on home media an exercise video called maximum potential, and got his first leading role as a man in the Masters of the universe, based on the famous children's game and cartoon. He starred alongside Frank Langella, Meg Foster, Chelsea field, Billie Barty and Courteney Cox. Lundgren weighed his heaviest weight ever during filming at 248 pounds (112 kg). The film was a huge failure and was perceived as too violent for a family picture.[31] [32] referred to as a "flop" by Variety magazine, and has a 13% "Rotten" rating at Rotten filmbalak. Lundgren was criticized for being too wooden as a leading man, and was dismissed as a "brilliant fantasy starring Dolph Lundgren monosyllabic
He then starred in Joseph Zito's the Red Scorpion in 1988, opposite M. Emmett Walsh, Al White, T. P. McKenna and Carmen Argenziano. The plot focuses on Lundgren's character Nikolai, a Soviet Spetsnaz-trained KGB agent who is sent to an African country where Soviet, Czechoslovak and Cuban troops are supporting the government's fight against an anti-communist insurgent movement. Nikolai orders the assassination of the leader of the movement, but eventually changes his position. The film was partly shot in Namibia and Grace Jones allegedly joined him during production in Swakopmund, and he insisted on staying in a villa worth 3000 dollars a month, although his girlfriend at the time was Paula Barbieri.The film was poorly received and received an 11% "rotten" rating at Rotten Tomatoes. Stephen Holden of the New York Times said, Dolph Lundgren's bra is the real stars of Red Scorpion, an action-adventure film set in the fictional African country of mombaka. Filmed from below so that one has the sensation of staring at a huge kinetic statue, its shiny torso, which over the course of the film is subjected to various tortures, is the primary visual focus of the film whenever the movement slows down. And since Mr. Lundgren is still stone-faced, rarely speaks except for issuing orders in a surprisingly monotonous, hesitant tone, his raised chest actually conveys more emotion than his mumbling lips
Lundgren then starred as the Marvel Comics character Frank Castle (also known as The Punisher) in the 1989 film The Punisher. The film is directed by Mark Goldblatt, with a screenplay by Boaz Yakin. Although it is based on the Marvel Comics character, the film changes many details of the origin of the original comic book and the main character does not wear the trademark "skull". The Punisher was filmed in Sydney, Australia and also featured Louis Gossett Jr., Jeroen crabé, Kim miore, and Barry Otto. The film received mainly negative reviews, and currently holds a 24% "Rotten" rating at Rotten Tomatoes. Christopher Noll gave the film a 1 out of 5, stating that the film was "marred by cheeseball sets and special effects, lame fight sequences, and some of the worst acting ever for screen shame."While criticizing the film's story and acting, Time Out magazine concluded that the film was devastating, reprehensible, and great fun
