London, July 31 (ANI): Sylvester Stallone is considering directing a ‘Rambo’ prequel with a young actor in the role to tell the story of the character’s youth.
The 64-year-old has now conceded that he is getting too old, and therefore he’s planning to continue the Rambo franchise by handing the role over to a younger actor for a prequel.
“I certainly think this is worth pondering because it’s intriguing to find the whys and wherefores of how people have come to become what they are,” the Daily Express quoted him s telling Moviehole.net.
“The traumas, the loss and the tragedy of being in Vietnam would certainly be a great challenge for a young actor and it would be ironic that Rambo directs younger Rambo after having played it for 20 plus years,” he added. (ANI)
