RAMBO: First Blood was released over 30 years ago, but still remains a timeless action movie for fans.
The film was co-written by Sylvester Stallone who also portrays the powerful lead character, John Rambo.
But the new film will see actor Noah Centineo, 29, play the iconic role, and he wasn't Sylvester's first choice.
Noah got his first big break when he took over the role of Jesus Adams Foster in The Fosters in 2013.

Noah also appeared as Camila Cabello's love interest in her single Havana ft. Young Thug.
The actor previously dated Kylie Jenner's best friend Stassie Karanikolaou and Alexis Ren, a Sports Illustrated model and ballet dancer, but they split at the start of 2020.
Viewers will see Noah play the soldier, and follow him during the Vietnam war.

Insiders have said that Sylvester is aware of the project and has been 'alerted' as to Noah's casting, but is not involved.
But that hasn't stopped the 79-year-old star from expressing who he'd like to play the part.
Chatting on Jimmy Fallon's The Tonight Show last year, Sylvester said he'd 'pass the baton' to Ryan Gosling.

He said: 'I met him at a dinner and obviously we're opposites. He's good-looking — I'm not. That's how it works.
'But he goes, 'I was fascinated by Rambo, and I used to go to school dressed as Rambo and people would chase me away and I still didn't stop.'
'He just kept saying that he had a lot of affiliation with Rambo, and I thought, this is interesting. If I ever pass the baton, I'll pass it on to him because he loves the character.'
The Sun has contacted Sylvester Stallone's representative for comment.
