Entertainment Weekly got an update from Rocky Balboa writer-director-exec. producer-star Sylvester Stallone about the fourth “Rambo” installment. While the film doesn’t have a domestic distributor yet, Rambo IV is expected to start filming October 1 in Thailand, says the magazine.
Stallone said he called Soldier of Fortune magazine to get their opinion on who Rambo should face next and asked, “‘What is the most critical man-doing-inhumanity-to-man situation right now in the world? Where is it?’” The answer was Burma.
He has written a first draft of the script with Art Monterastelli (The Hunted), which finds Rambo living a monastic lifestyle in Bangkok and salvaging old PT boats and tanks for scrap metal. When a group of volunteers bringing supplies into Burma disappears, a relative of one of the missing missionaries begs Rambo to find them.
Rambo then heads off with a team of young guns to find the relative.
