George North has turned down a role in Sly Stallone's sequel to the Expendables franchise.

The action movie, which stars the like of Schwarzenegger, Stallone, Van Damme & Chuck Norris was apparently lacking action heroes and North didn't want to be seen with such a weak cast.

Actually he was fired-they wanted Stephen Donald instead.

Smoke and mirror stuff, North was afraid of doing his own stunts.

They got Drew Barrymore instead so it's worked out for the best.

Yeah, the benefit for us action movie junkies, at least now there is something for the eye as well.

Actually he's holding out for a better role in an upcoming NFL movie, he is estimated to get a $20 million contract.

No, he'd already signed up to reappear as Neil in the second The Inbetweeners Movie.
