Vinnie Jones joins Stallone, Schwarzenegger in ‘The Tomb’

Vinnie Jones has signed up to star in the upcoming action blockbuster The Tomb.

Sylvester Stallone and Arnold Schwarzenegger will lead the project, which centres on a prison expert (Stallone) who gets trapped in a lock-up that he designed.

Earlier this week, Jones hinted that he may be joining the film, saying: “I might have a film coming up with Arnold Schwarzenegger and Sly Stallone. Those boys are knocking on a bit.

“At least I’ll be prepared if the action scenes get a bit too heavy for them.”

However, he has now confirmed his involvement, telling The Sun: “Start filming April 19 in New Orleans. Biggest blockbuster of next summer – $120 million budget (£80 million).

“It’s about three cons in prison looking to bust out.”

Person of Interest actor Jim Caviezel also recently signed up for the project.
