Helen Mirren will star opposite Bruce Willis and Morgan Freeman in the thriller Red, according to Variety.

The film, housed over at Summit Entertaiment, is based on the WildStorm/ DC comic book of the same name.

The three-book series, published in 2003 and 2004, follows a former black-ops CIA agent who lives a quiet life in retirement until the day a high-tech assassin shows up intent on killing him.

Three of the most iconic action heroes have united on screen for the first time in history. Sylvester Stallone, Bruce Willis and Arnold Schwarzenegger have shot a scene together for Stallone's new actioner The Expendables. EthalMae's blog reveals:

After Arnold, Bruce and Sly went through the scene a couple of times they all 3 headed off to wardrobe and make-up. at 8:10am with three cameras rolling the biggest action icons of our time went to work. I thought it was electric in Brazil when all of The Expendables stepped on set - but today was atomic!!!! the whole crew was mesmerized as we watched the three of them play off of each other in a pivotal scene that sets up the whole movie. And while I can't/don't want to give too much away I can tell you that Arnold's character is Trench and Bruce is Church, the scene was shot in an empty church without extras and minimal set dec and it has tension and humor - what more can a girl ask for! Sly was in top form as a director today and was in total command. Bruce and Arnold were consummate professionals at all times - we got through the scene quickly without compromise. In 6 hours we did wide shots, close-ups, turned around...the whole nine yards...pretty impressive. Very Clint Eastwood.

The film also stars Terry Crews, Randy Couture, Eric Roberts, Mickey Rourke, Jet Li, Jason Statham, Dolph Lundgren, Charisma Carpenter, Giselle Itie, Brittany Murphy, David Zayas and Amin Joseph.

Bruce Willis will play a mercenary murderer in the film of popular videogame 'Kane and Lynch'.

The film's producer, Adam Askarieh, told Gamedaily.com: "He called it one of the best action scripts he's ever read, and Bruce is an expert in terms of action scripts because he's read everything over the last 20 years.

Willis, 54, will play Adam 'Kane' Marcus, a convicted murderer who is kidnapped by his former employers while being bussed to death row. He teams up with "schizophrenic psychopath" James Seth Lynch in a twist that sees heroes who are as sociopathic as the villains.

Bruce Willis has finally confirmed to MTV, via /Film that he has a part in the star-laden Sylvester Stallone directed THE EXPENDABLES.

Willis tells MTV that he hasn't filmed the scene yet, and that he's still "waiting for a call from Sly about when we're going to try and make that happen." And while he has yet to read any script pages, Willis was able to confirm that the cameo appearance involves sharing the screen with Arnold Schwarzenegger and Stallone.

Bruce will play Mr Church, the man who hires the Expendables, a highly-trained team of deadly combat mercenaries, to go on a mission to South America to overthrow and execute a villainous dictator.

The trailer for the new Bruce Willis film is now up on MySpace. THE SURROGATES....

n the film, FBI agents (Willis and Mitchell) investigate the mysterious murder of a college student linked to the man who helped create a high-tech surrogate phenomenon that allows people to purchase unflawed robotic versions of themselves--fit, good looking remotely controlled machines that ultimately assume their life roles--enabling people to experience life vicariously from the comfort and safety of their own homes. The murder spawns a quest for answers: in a world of masks, who's real and who can you trust?
