(MENAFN- Khaleej Times) The last film Rambo earned $113 million worldwide.
After months of speculation Sylvester Stallone has finally announced the title for the fifth (and seemingly final) Rambo movie Rambo: Last Blood. The actor simply tweeted earlier this week that he’ll be filming the gangster biopic of Gregory ‘The Grim Reaper’ Scarpa after shooting Rambo: Last Blood. Seven years have passed since Stallone last reprised the role of Vietnam vet John Rambo.
The last film Rambo earned $113 million worldwide. Since 2008 he’s talked about both retiring the character (who first appeared in David Morrell’s 1972 novel First Blood) for good and bringing him back for a last hurrah.
Stallone apparently decided on the latter as he’ll be directing and writing Rambo: Last Blood in addition to starring in the film. Stallone will be returning to another familiar franchise tweeting that he’s headed to Philadelphia to play Rocky Balboa for the seventh time in director Ryan Coogler’s Creed. He’ll play the trainer of Apollo Creed’s grandson portrayed by Michael B. Jordan.
