Arnold Schwarzenegger and Bruce Willis have reportedly just signed deals to take much bigger roles in The Expendables 2, reports Deadline.

Sylvester Stallone is returning with Con Air director Simon West helming while Willis has found time before shooting Die Hard 5 to join and although Arnie has been busy lately trying to avoid paparazzi cameras, he has also agreed to reprise his cameo role to much bigger effect in the second film. Two other names have also reportedly become attached, and they are Chuck Norris and Jean Claude Van Damme. Action fans the world over, and indeed anyone that had a VHS in the 80s, will soil themselves with excitement.

There is no word on returning cast members from the first film. But I'd like to see UFC hall of famer Randy Couture kicking more ass, while Jason Statham is probably a lock to return.
