Big "Rambo V" news this morning, as it looks like we finally have some details about the film's official synopsis. Earlier reports of plot details were wrong, but it now looks Sylvester Stallone's Rambo will be battling a nasty beast in the new sequel.
So, here's what happened: Back when Nu Image/Millennium Films greenlit "Rambo V: The Savage Hunt," reports indicated the story would take Rambo to the U.S.-Mexico border to rescue a kidnapped girl. That information, however, was wrong.
Ain't It Cool News and other sites somehow got their hands on a document describing the main storyline of the fifth installment in the series starring Sylvester Stallone. And yes, he's going after a beast this time:
John Rambo could track anyone - or anything - on earth. Now the military desperately needs him for a mission that his ultrasensitive instincts tell him he should refuse. A beast is loose somewhere north of the Artic Circle. It has already decimated a secret research facility and annihilated a squad of elite military guards. And the raging creature is headed south toward civilization, ready to wreak bloody devastation.
It's a job that Rambo and his 22-year-old hunting partner, Beau Brady, can't turn down, but they and a team of highly-skilled special forces kill team discover that the prey is a terror beyond their wildest imagination - a half-human abomination created by a renegade agency through a series of outlawed genetic experiments. It has man's cunning, a predator's savageness, and a prehistoric power that has transcended the ages. And even if Rambo and Beau survive its unrelenting hunger for human blood, they'll still have to contront the grim reality that it may have grown immortal.
This is definitely a new direction for the series, but I doubt we will get to see anything else original in the sequel. It will probably be even more violent and bloodier this time around.
BTW, ComingSoon points out this is an adaptation of the novel "Hunter" by James Byron Huggins, to which Stallone owns the film rights.
