Doing Scarpa based on Gangster Greg Scarpa after LAST BLOOD RAMBO…
His notes seem to confirmrumors from this fallthat the fifthRambomovie would be titledLast Blood. At the time Peter complained the name was “a bit too on the nose,” but it does seem appropriate. Interestingly,Rambo: Last Bloodwas also the name ofa flash-based gamereleased in 2012.
As previously announced by Splendid Films, Stallone has already begun work on his screenplay for the nextRambofilm. “WithRambo V, Sylvester Stallone returns in his iconic role,” the company said in June. “This time he goes up against a Mexican cartel. Stallone describes the newRamboas his version ofNo Country for Old Men.”
The fifthRambomovie has been in development for several years already, but as of now still hasn’t officially been announced.Stallone’s latest message doesn’t say when exactly cameras will roll onRambo: Last Blood, only that it’ll take priority overScarpa. So eitherRambo: Last Bloodis shooting soon, orScarpais a really long way off.
Scarpais being directed by Brad Furman and scripted by Nicholas Pileggi (Goodfellas,Casino). It’ll the true tale of Gregory Scarpa, a capo and hitman who claimed to have killed at least 50 people for the Colombo crime family.Scarpawill focus on the gangster’s later life as an FBI informant, specifically his help with the “Mississippi Burning” case in the mid-1960s. Scarpa died of AIDS-related complications in 1994 at the age of 66.
