City commuters got a festive shock this week when a 15 tonne military tank rolled through the capital.
The beast – with Santa at the helm - surprised passers-by on Monday morning marking the release of The Expendables 3 on DVD and Blu-ray
The star-studded roll call of London’s landmarks, including Big Ben, Westminster and the London Eye was the architectural equivalent of the mega action film’s line-up, names like Stallone, Schwarzenegger, Ford, Gibson, Snipes, Banderas and Sydenham’s Jason Statham.
Ben Grunbaum, from distributor Lionsgate UK, said: “If anybody knows action it’s The Expendables. We thought we’d give the City a little glimpse of what the movie is all about by driving a 15 tonne tank down Oxford Street. You don’t see that every day.”
THE EXPENDABLES 3 IS OUT ON DVD, EXTENDED EDITION BLU-RAY, DIGITAL DOWNLOAD & VOD NOW.
