Nu Image/Millennium Films is officially developing a fifth installment in the Rambo franchise, with Sylvester Stallone starring and directing, repeating his duties from 2008's Rambo, according to Variety.

The upcoming project's storyline revolves around Rambo fighting his way through human traffickers and drug lords to rescue a young girl abducted near the U.S.-Mexico border.

Stallone had indicated in interviews that a fifth Rambo was in the works. He teamed with Nu Image/Millennium on the 2008 project, which grossed $42 million domestically and $113 million overseas.

Production will start in the spring.

scrubby, go watch part 4, simply titled "RAMBO", and you'll KNOW WHY.

Todd89, he already finished the series with a bang, and then some! Everybody loved it so much, he had to do another one. I literally cheered in the theater when he slaughtered those guys with that 50 cal.

Little tidbit; The last baddie leader dude that Sly stabbed and cut in half with his forged knife, was actually one of the real Burma freedom fighters. He fled, leaving his whole family behind and Sly gave him the part that he played, because the guy wanted to help portray the soldiers as evil as they really are.

I will be there for this new one! I hope it has the same intensity as the last one. No more Rambo holding back, like in the other movies. The man's a killing machine! That last movie was Rambo how he was always supposed to be.

Colonel Troutman: "Rambo was trained for one purpose...to fight...with guns....with knives...with his bare hands, to ignore pain, ignore weather.... to live off the land, and EAT things that would make a billy goat puke! In Vietnam, his job was to kill! Period! Win by attrition! And Rambo was the best!"

Rambo: "They drew first blood.....not me!"

Man, this news just made my day!

Nice apparently according to some rumours that have floated around the 5th installment is meant to feature Rambo's daughter.

Maybe that's the girl he has to save/ rescue

I should take a look at the last film, sounds awesome and this sounds just as good.

August 31st, 2009 3:01pm
Haha! If it's anything as awesome as the last "Rambo" movie was, then I'm all game!

Is part of the story sounding like Man On Fire? If it is how are they going to pull it off to not be a copycat.

Only reason why he's continuing this is because he was broke and he wants to finish the series with a bang.

August 31st, 2009 8:25am
Yes, that's what i heard.... Bring it on man

As the previous folks said. Bring it, Sly. Even though I thought the last one was to be the last one indeed. It seems he's not going down without a fight.
