AI is sophisticated enough to go through Saigon to see him at 18 years old and basically use the same image. So it isn\u2019t as big a stretch,\u201d he said, as quoted by Variety.<\/p>\n<p>\n                                You Might Be Interested In<\/p>\n<p>Noting that the character of John Rambo won\u2019t be easy for any actor to play, Stallone added, \u201cIt\u2019s very, very hard. He may do a stellar job, but you\u2019re overcoming this because I went through it with \u2018Get Carter.\u2019 Everyone loves the original, and then you\u2019re always fighting that prejudice.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Stallone\u2019s comments come at a time when a \u2018Rambo\u2019 prequel is said to be in the pipeline, with Noah Centineo in the lead role. <\/p>\n<p>Earlier in 2022, the actor spoke to The Hollywood Reporter and shared that he wanted the Rambo prequel to happen like a Ken Burns documentary. \u201cHe\u2019s this outgoing guy, football captain, and then you see why he becomes Rambo. But what they want to do is a modern-day story where I pass the torch. That\u2019s getting close,\u201d Stallone explained.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, the Noah Centineo starrer \u2018Rambo\u2019 is not the only film in works. Peter Farrelly will also present the \u2018Rocky\u2019 making-of drama \u2018I Play Rocky\u2019 with Anthony Ippolito in the lead, as per Variety.<\/p>\n<p>Nonetheless, Sylvester Stallone is set to bring his memoir, \u2018The Steps\u2019, on May 5, 2026. On the work front, he was recently seen in Taylor Sheridan\u2019s \u2018Tulsa King\u2019 Season 3. (ANI)<\/p>\n<p>(The article has been published through a syndicated feed.
