He reprises his role as the Vietnam War veteran John Rambo, who he has played in all four films of the iconic action franchise since it debuted in 1982.

In a video shared with his eight million Instagram followers, Stallone said: “This final Rambo, he finally finds what he assumes to be peace, love, belonging, family.

”And when that is taken, everyone can imagine losing the thing you most prize, most love, the thing you would gladly die for and that’s taken. And it takes a man on a real dark journey.”

Stallone added: “This is going to be a very, very intense Rambo and I am incredibly proud to have been part of it.

“It’s been an amazing odyssey and it’s coming your way soon.”

Directed by Adrian Grunberg from a script co-written by Stallone, Last Blood is due to hit cinemas in 2019.
