Jason Statham has admitted that he is excited to be returning for Expendables 2.

The actor is set to reprise the role of Lee in the movie alongside Sylvester Stallone and Jet Li - but Stallone will not be in the director's chair this time around.

And the Brit star reveals that the movie is set to be filmed in Bulgaria.

Speaking to Collider at the Toronto Film Festival the actor said: "Yeah, yeah Sly and the motley crew are gonna get together and I've been invited to the party, and I wanna go there.

"I had such a great time with Sly, he's a man I'm very happy to work with again.

"They start in two weeks time. I'm making a movie with Taylor Hackford in New Orleans called Parker, I'm going straight from there to Bulgaria. That's where we're at, Expendables 2 Bulgaria

There have been rumours flying around this week that Jean Claude Van Damme will be joining the all star cast - but Statham wouldn't give anything away to do with the casting of the movie.

"It's not secret, but the confirmation of who's in it I can't give you.

"But every name in the book has been bandied around, I mean there's no one out there that hasn't done great action along the course of their career that hasn't been at some point mentioned as being in the film, so who the f*** knows?"

Statham will next be seen on the big screen later this month as he teams up with Robert De Niro and Clive Owen for Killer Elite.
