While there is a speculation on who would play the role of Rambo, many fans believe that Rambo isn’t a character that would survive a comeback. In fact, Rambo dies in the original novel by David Morrell.
Even the four installments showed him as a character who wants to hide out instead of coming out to head into different situations. Rambo won’t work out if the character is left out in the cities and asked to be a part of the current world situation.
Plus, replicating the horrors and incidents of Vietnam are hard. Rambo is a product of the war, and it won’t work if he is made to be a part of the city where he can wander around and engage in fights.
James Bond is a versatile character, which changes with the changing times, but not Rambo.
Rambo 5 is still being worked out. The script or the plot is still undecided, so fans do not have anything to fall back on. However, since Ariel Vromen and Brooks McLaren are known for their brilliance, there is hope that they wouldn’t let Rambo get lost in the crowd.
