Update on Rambo 5!

Posted by Vic On December - 5 - 2009

Honestly, do we really need another Rambo? Looks like we’re coming closer to getting one. Stallone’s publicist Maria Lascala posted this on her blog:

“When he first agreed to do another Rambo the idea of JR against something way way bigger was the logical step- he knew that this time out Rambo needed the ultimate challenge physically and mentally. But as the creative process took hold Sly found himself veering away from that concept with the real pull towards the story of the horrendous violence inflicted on the women and girls caught in the Mexican drug war. It will have all of the trademarks of a Stallone film and the story will be provocative, revealing and totally kick ass. And while the chess game governments play using innocents as pawns has been told before I am prepared to bet the farm Sly will come up with stuff that will blow our socks off – figuratively and literally!! So now I’m clear – this Rambo will be Rambo and Hunter will be made in the future as a stand alone as it should be. Sly is also talking about collaborating with a writer for Rambo.”

She also asked Stallone for an update on his rumored Poe project:

“I also asked about Poe…again… because that to me has the potential to be an award winning film even if the studios don’t get it.  He told me not to get him started on that one and as much as I wanted to ignore  and go for it I didn’t.  So I’m hoping Sherlock Homes does well so that someone will wake up and put some money behind it.”

Honestly Stallone, give up on the dumb rehashes and start up Poe.
