New info on the upcoming fifth installment of "Rambo" movie series hit the internet. According to ComingSoon, the John Rambo saga will conclude with "Rambo: Last Blood", a fitting title to close the franchise which kicked off with "First Blood" in 1982.

Besides reprising his role as the titular hero, Sly reportedly also plans to sit behind the lens for the next and possibly last entry in the franchise. Last month, the actor did say he was getting ready for the film now that he had already finished "The Expendables 3".

"I'm starting to work out," he said. "I'm going to be appropriately vicious and all that stuff, but intellectual. A killer with a heart. Smart, yet stupid. Tall, yet short. Broad, but thin. You know what I mean. We're going to try to cover all the boundaries."

Editors' Pick

Sly once described the new Rambo as "his version of 'No Country for Old Men'." The official plot is still scarce, but rumor suggested Rambo would face off a Mexican cartel. Another report said the story would be based on James Byron Huggins' novel "Hunter".
