• Jean-Claude Van Damme was considered for the role of Jean Vilain's twin brother, Claude Vilain.
• Clint Eastwood was offered one of the roles, but he declined.
• Dwayne Johnson and Hulk Hogan were willing to star in the film, but were turned down.
• Steven Seagal could have starred in the film.
• Bruce Willis was supposed to play the role of Church for a fee of $3 million ($750,000 for each of the four shooting days). When he demanded $1 million per day, Sylvester Stallone and the film's producers refused, after which he left the project. Literally 3 days later, Stallone secured Harrison Ford for a similar role.
• Sylvester Stallone offered Jackie Chan a supporting role, but he declined because he wanted to play one of the leading roles.
• During the filming of a scene in a truck with Jason Statham, an accident occurred – the truck fell into the sea due to brake failure. The actor was unharmed.
• Nicolas Cage was considered for the role of Bonaparte before Kelsey Grammer was cast.
• Mickey Rourke was offered the opportunity to reprise the role of Tool.
• Milla Jovovich was considered for the role of Camilla, but ultimately left the project.
• Arnold Schwarzenegger's filming took just over a week.
• Lucas Till auditioned for the role of Smiley, which was later given to Kellan Lutz.
• When Doc (Wesley Snipes) is asked what he was imprisoned for, he replies that it was for tax evasion. Snipes was indeed convicted and served three years in prison for failing to pay taxes.
• When Barney Ross interrogated Conrad Stonebanks in the van, an N7 suit (photo) belonging to Captain Shepard, the main character of the video game Mass Effect, is visible in the background.
• In this installment of 'The Expendables,' they fly on a Soviet An-26 military transport aircraft repainted in their team's colors. The aircraft type markings are preserved on the tail and nose of the fuselage. In some scenes in the cockpit (particularly behind the first pilot), Russian inscriptions can be seen.
• Mel Gibson was offered not only the role of the main villain, but also the position of director of the project, but he still declined the latter.
• When Barney and the new team’s plane taxis onto the runway, the engines are on, but when the old team appears, a rotor blade is stationary.
• When Barney kills Stonebanks, he is visibly still breathing.
• Filming took place from August 19, 2013, to October 22, 2013.
