‘He was actually so strong that in one of the scenes, he was supposed to barge into a stunt performer and his strength resulted in the guy going flying and dislocated his finger.’

Ng said said that the stuntman ‘and his finger are ok now of course.’

The rapper, whose hits include In da Club, P.I.M.P. and If I Can’t, appears alongside Sylvester Stallone, 76, Dolph Lundgren, 65, Jason Statham, 55, Andy Garcia, 67, and Megan Fox, 37, in the movie.

‘We played to the fact that Megan has a strong dance background,’ said Ng, who has past worked with Jackie Chan on a number of films.

Ng said Fox’s past work on the Transformers films ‘definitely helped with her scenes,’ in Expend4bles.
