Dolph Lundgren in The Expendables(Rex Features)

For those of us who were action fans in the 80s, Dolph Lundgren is a bit of a legend. 6’5 with muscles that could take on a Panzer tank, he tore up the screen in action flicks like Red Scorpion and Universal Soldier.

But then, like so many of our favourite 80s stars, Dolph fell into obscurity. So we were chuffed to hear that he’smaking an action flick comeback in The Expendables with Sly Stallone. In fact, although he doesn’t get as much screen time as Sly, Jason Statham and Jet Li, he’s our number one reason for going to see The Expendables(along with all the explosions, obviously).
