Critics believe that the latest rumors on “Rambo 5” as published by Relevant Magazine are empty, citing that the 2017 release date looks impossible given Stallone’s schedule.
Although Sly has it in him to do the movie and stand toe-to-toe with even younger actors, it is possible that Stallone has realized that he is better off slowing down than pushing himself too hard which is no longer appropriate given his ripe age.
The last time that Stallone did a solo action movie was in 2008 for “Rambo 4” or simply titled as “John Rambo.” That was eight years ago and he was only 61 years old by then, probably 60 at the time of filming.
But it would be an entirely different scenario now that he is already 70. Things in the production would really be far different than the last time, notes the Lawyer Herald.
While his last action film was “The Expendables 4” shown in 2014, it was not a solo act for Sly but an ensemble of some of the most popular action stars to have graced Hollywood both in the past and in the present. So it was not as taxing for him during the production as it was during the filming of “Rambo 4.”
