Rambo 5 Brings Rambo Home to America

By Nix | March 22, 2008 (2:47 pm) | More: Rambo 5 (2009) Movie

Well, sooner or later we knew John Rambo had to come home, just as we knew that sooner or later, the powers that be would do yet another sequel to the franchise. But to be honest, we just didn’t know how soon they would do it. Nary a year has gone by since “Rambo” bloodied up cinemas everywhere, and Sylvester Stallone is already back, mullet and all (one presumes), to do “Rambo 5″, which would be set in Arizona, America, as indicated by the ending of the latest “Rambo”. So then why are they shooting this thing in Bulgaria?

A reliable contact for Moviehole, ‘KC’, informed us today that the next “Rambo” film will indeed be set in America - it’s just more cost-effective to do it in Bulgaria.

Says our scooper, “The street sets of Bulgaria that are getting the makeover, the same ones that were rented out and used in Van Damme’s The Shepherd, will be doubling for Rambo’s hometown, which is supposed to somewhere in Arizona.”

You know, just so long as Rambo doesn’t have to defend helpless farmers against land-grubbing ranchers/city slickers, then this is fine with me. But I got a feeling it’s gonna be like that. After all, how many plot can you come up with that has the hero in a desert town and not somehow make the villain a land baron or his contemporary equivalent?

Got a feeling that we might be treated to a rehash of the original FIRST BLOOD. Rambo might get fingered by the local sheriff, and all hell’s gonna break loose - a remake within a sequel.

Maybe Brian Dennehy will finally push back…”I told you the first time we don’t want your kind in these parts!”
