 Rambo Reboot WITHOUT Stallone
 Quote: John Rambo is in, Sylvester Stallone is out as Nu Image/Millennium Films has announced plans to reboot the character in the form of Rambo: New Blood, which producers are hoping will turn him into a perennial cinematic action hero ala James Bond. http://www.empireonline.com/movies/news/rambo-getting-reboot-without-sylvester-stallone/

 Re: Rambo Reboot WITHOUT Stallone
It could be cool if done well, but it just all sounds so money grabbery. I'm a bit excited seeing Vromen attached as the director, but I still see no possibility it will come close to the first 3 films.

 Re: Rambo Reboot WITHOUT Stallone
Yeah, dumb. The only way this could've worked is if the fourth film never existed and they rebooted in 1992 (though that also would've been dumb because though far from his peak, Stallone was still a name). Rambo can't be turned into a Bond like character. Rambo and Stallone go hand-in-hand. Granted, you could say the same thing about Bond and Connery in 1969, but the series got over that with a good film. And unlike Lazenby and Moore, the new Rambo would have to deal with a 30+ year history with Stallone.
This is never getting made. And if it does, Rambo will only become another Transporter or just some dumb single-digit million-dollar-making character.

 Re: Rambo Reboot WITHOUT Stallone
If they're going to do this they should set it in the Vietnam days or something. Not that I have any interest in that story, but it would at least justify recasting with a younger actor.
