According to Production Weekly, Sylvester Stallone has attached himself to replay the lead role of John Rambo in the upcoming installment RAMBO IV: IN THE SERPENT'S EYE.

The next chapter finds Rambo recruited by a group of Christian human rights missionaries to protect them against pirates, during a humanitarian aid deliver to the persecuted Karen people of Burma. After some of the missionaries are taken prisoner by sadistic Burmese soldiers, Rambo gets a second impossible job: to assemble a team of mercenaries to rescue the surviving relief workers.

Stallone is attached not only to star, but also to produce and direct the film from a screenplay that he wrote. Production is set to being in January of 2007.

Welcome back John Rambo. Stallone gets a second chance, again. At the age of 60 he's not doing so bad. If he stars, directs and produces he will have no excuses if this project fails, I suspect it will make a profit even though the critics will trash it even before filming starts.

I`ll definitely go see Rocky Balboa in December, even if its just to see how bad it is.
I`d probably wait until dvd to see Rambo iv though.

I'm looking forward to Rocky Balboa, but I don't know about this one. First Blood was a great movie, with a strong message. But, Rambo 2 and 3 just got too out of hand for my taste. Although, I liked the line in Rambo 2..."I'm coming for you!" What the hell, let the body count begin!.

I'm a huge fan of the Rambo series, but something about this synopsis has me a little worried. Why not human rights missionaries? The last thing we need is Rambo killing non-believers for Christ. Let's hope this movie doesn't play to the increasingly intolerant and ignorant public. If you don't believe that statement check the National Geographic survey. The United States is next to last in the belief in evolution. The only country more ignorant was Turkey. A new Dark Ages for America?

wow, that is crazy popa. I never understood how people could readily believe that some dude about 1,000 years ago, could, walk on water, raise the dead, be killed and come back to life, and turn wine in his blood, and they not believe that we evolved from something less than what we are now. People are THAT, ignorant and arrogant I guess.
