Sylvester Stallone and Jason Statham looked ready-for-action as they posed alongside one another during the filming of The Expendables 4 on Wednesday.

On-set at an unknown location in England, the Hollywood stars beamed from ear-to-ear for a snap posted to Instagram by the Fast & Furious star, 54, on Tuesday.

Kitted up in the black military ensembles worn by their mercenary characters, they donned onyx berets hat and zip-up tank tops featuring multiple compartments.

‘Back in business with the main man @officialslystallone #expendables4,’ wrote Jason in his caption.

According to TIME, producer Avi Lerner said of the upcoming film: ‘We are writing the final lines of the script [and] we’ve got lots of ideas about who is going to be in it.’
