Rambo 6: New Blood – First Trailer | Sylvester Stallone Return

Rambo 6: New Blood

Teaser Trailer | Sylvester Stallone, Jon Bernthal

Despite Sylvester Stallone’s announcement about the end of the Rambo franchise, speculation surrounding “Rambo 6” continues to thrive. This anticipation is heightened by Stallone’s history of revisiting retired characters, including Rambo himself. Since his debut in the 1982 film “First Blood,” Stallone’s portrayal of John Rambo has solidified his status as one of the most iconic action heroes of the 1980s.

Initially, it was assumed that the series had come to a close after 1988’s “Rambo III.” However, Stallone revived the character in 2008 with “Rambo,” and again more than a decade later in 2019 with “Rambo: Last Blood.” This revival of the franchise not only reinvigorated interest among fans but also explains why inquiries about “Rambo 6” persistently arise in interviews with Stallone.

Additionally, Stallone has a history of bringing back other iconic characters, such as Rocky Balboa and Barney Ross from “The Expendables,” long after their supposed final appearances. This pattern has led devoted fans to hold onto the hope that “Last Blood” might not have signaled the end for Rambo.

While the likelihood of a release date announcement for “Rambo 6” in the near future seems slim, discussions about potential sequels have been ongoing since “Rambo: Last Blood.” The possibility of John Rambo returning—whether portrayed by Stallone or another actor—remains an exciting prospect that fans are eager to explore.
