Joining Gina Carino as the new addition to the female version of The Expendables is Katee Sackhoff, a woman that the Flixist staff totes forgot about when we compiled our own list of female badasses. Now we can't say we're predicting them anymore! Producer Adi Shankar had this to say about Sackhoff joining the project:
If you spend five minutes with Katee it becomes blatantly obvious that she would pwn (sic) most male action stars.
Is Shankar going to say something cool each time a new woman gets added to the cast? Because that's what I'm going to be looking forward to with each new announcement.
Now we just need a title. I'm tired of calling these female badasses "female Expedables" because it sounds too much like expendable females. So...let's get the title of thing situated before we add more to the cast and I'm forced to demean these women, okay? Because they would beat the crap out of me.
