Many of them went right back to the direct-to-DVD fare in which they had specialized, like Dolph Lundgren and Jean-Claude Van Damme. It's not a surprise that The Expendables has done very little for the profiles of some of the actors involved.
The camaraderie is so strong in these movies that you rarely see the characters, and the actors, so absolutely vexed by another in their midst. Given his recent imprisonment (both Snipes' and Doc's), his character is a little unhinged, a little "off", as he rambles on about the unseen "original" Expendables, shaving his beard off with a knife. But when Snipes' Doc joins the group, suddenly the Frankensteined series is alive, brought to life by an errant bolt of lightning.
The Expendables has been a franchise that built itself on inevitability, on a formula enacted to a tee.
