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.

He has played Peter Kavinsky in all the To All the Boys films and he played the male lead in Sierra Burgess Is a Loser.
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.
Filming for the new production is rumoured to be beginning in early 2026, and taking place in Thailand.

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.

‘Ibiza Final Boss' is unrecognisable in throwback pic from long before viral fame – and WITHOUT iconic shades & stubble
Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) "IBIZA Final Boss" Jack Kay has been pictured for the first time without his iconic shades and stubble - and it's quite a sight. A throwback pic of Final Boss has been unearthed, from even before the days of the bowl-cut trim. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 8 Ibiza Final Boss Jack Kay, far right, looks completely different in old snaps RIP FROM 8 'Ibiza Final Boss' Jack Kay, far right, is virtually unrecognisable in this throwback pic 8 The British social media megastar spent the weekend celebrating his new found fame at a £9million mansion in Ibiza Credit: Instagram The snap shows Jack lined up with his three of his mates in a boozer. He's the only one with a pint in front of him and he's clearly been tucking into it. Young Jack stares down the camera with narrowed eyes and with his arm around one of his pals. His signature black vest has been replaced with a basic black tee - and the lack of a fat gold chain is another glaring difference. But there's a flick of the same pout he wore while grooving around in the original viral clip last week. A second pic shows Jack looking much more like the Ibiza Boss we all know so well, but again without the specs. Jack hasn't been pictured once without his sunnies since shooting to fame, donning them even when The Sun caught up with him in his barbers back home. The blacked-out shades have also remained glued to his face after he zoomed back out to the party island in a £5million private jet. Since returning to his stomping ground, Jack has embraced his new found fame with wild parties at a £9million mansion called The Blue Stone Villa. Tucked away in the hills of Ibiza, the glitzy gaff comes with a large outdoor swimming pool, private chef and its own indoor nightclub. Ibiza 'Final Boss' parties at £9million mansion in Ibiza with bikini girls There's even a barbecue, DJ booth and state-of-the-art surround sound system with unrivalled privacy for all guests. He's even had a run-in with controversial adult performer Bonnie Blue - leaving fans questioning whether they could have collaborated on some content. She flew to the White Island for an impromptu rendezvous with Jack, and a vid shows the moment they awkwardly hug in the villa garden. Jack's new found fame was on full display on Saturday as he invited 100 of his fans, who he described as "charvas", to the villa. 8 Jack even took a dip in the mansion's swimming pool as he held a girl up on his shoulders Credit: Instagram 8 Jack's fame kicked off when a video of him dancing in Ibiza went viral Credit: TikTok/@zerosixwestibiza 8 Jack has been staying in the mega five-bedroom mansion, The Blue Stone Villa Credit: instagram/@thebluestone_ibiza Popular DJs Deniz Menendez and Rsquared performed for the surging crowds all as Jack embraced the party vibes. Just 24 hours later, the partying continued for Jack as he hosted a second bumper event at the holiday home with a host of new mates. One of those who made an appearance has already made headlines this summer after he was a part of FC Barcelona star Yamine Yamal's 18th birthday party. The teen sensation landed himself in hot water and is reportedly facing a government investigation after he allegedly hired people with dwarfism to perform. Juan Alberto Duaso says he was one of five dwarfs at the bash with him now making an appearance alongside Jack in Ibiza. 8 Juan Alberto Duaso. one of five dwarfs at Yamal's birthday bash, dressed up like Jack for an appearance in Ibiza Credit: Instagram 8 Jack shot to fame overnight after clip went viral Credit: instagram/@ Duaso was filmed sporting a bowl cut wig and mirroring Jack as the influencer described him as a "mini" version of himself. A video of the pair dancing was captioned: "The final boss and the mini boss out tonight, see you soon."

The song is bouncy and upbeat, making it perfect for clubbing or dancing in Ibiza. Fans have already gone wild over the new track. On the TV rumours, a source told The Sun: 'The Ibiza Final Boss has really captured the nation's imagination and is exactly the kind of character that makes for a fun Big Brother housemate. "Bosses had talks with his management, it is very late in the casting process for housemates but everyone thought worth a chat whether it be in time for this series, even as part of a task, or for the future. 'Jack's reps Neon Management have been inundated with offers for him so he's certainly going to be busy for at least the next few months. 'They've seen an unprecedented level of interest in him, and that's the nation loves him.'

Sylvester Stallone opens the door to his splashy $35M Florida home that has 12 bathrooms
Sylvester Stallone has opened the doors to his splashy $35M mansion in Florida. The coastal property, which was built in 2014, can be seen in the September/October issue of Veranda magazine. The 79-year-old Tulsa King star purchased the Palm Beach property four years ago with his model wife Jennifer Flavin but they moved in only two years ago. There are seven bedrooms with 10 full and two half bathrooms in the two-story main residence and two guesthouses. The backyard has a lot to offer: a keyhole-shaped pool, sandy beach, and a view of the water. His neighbors are Jon Bon Jovi, Rod Stewart, Howard Stern and Rush Limbaugh. The property is the only home in Palm Beach with access to a private beach, according to the outlet. Famed interior designer Martyn Lawrence Bullard, who has worked with the Kardashians, did the decorating. What he came up with was 'laid-back glamour,' Veranda said. Bullard wanted 'a loungy vibe' as well. Flavin said the home needed to be large to fit them and their three daughters: they have Sophia, 28, Sistine, 27, and Scarlet, 23. The Rambo actor is also dad to two sons with ex-wife Sasha Czack: Seargeoh, 44, and Sage, who died in July 2012 at 36. The home also had to house Stallone's vast art collection. 'I consider it like a wardrobe,' he said of his art collection. 'With art, you can take a piece that you've not blasé about, but you're not exactly overwhelmed by it anymore. 'You move that piece to another room — now you're invigorated! It's like furniture: messing around, moving it around, constantly restimulating our minds.' Flavin wanted a warm feeling. 'I've always made every house we've ever had a home,' she said. 'I don't care if someone spills something. I can replace the rug or get it cleaned. 'We have three dogs and a cat and lots of children — nothing we own is precious.' She added, 'Our family is precious, but the material things are not precious.' Stallone and Flavin reportedly sold their Hidden Hills, California property in 2023 for $17million, according to Robb Report. Before that they lived in a Beverly Park mansion. The actor sold that dwelling to Adele for a reported $58million. Stallone and Flavin originally listed it for $110 million. This comes after Stallone joined a coalition of Hollywood unions and industry leaders to urge Donald Trump to support tax incentives aimed at revitalizing the movie and TV business. The actor was appointed by Trump alongside big-screen veteran Jon Voight, 86 – a longtime supporter of U.S. President Trump – as 'special ambassadors' to Hollywood. But they have also joined the unions group to appeal for help from the U.S. President. It includes the Motion Picture Association (MPA), SAG-AFTRA, the Writers Guild of America, the Directors Guild of America, and they have sent Trump a letter to the president advocating for the reinstatement and expansion of specific tax provisions. The note focuses on three key tax measures: the extension of Section 181, which allows immediate expensing of up to $15 million in production costs (or $20 million for productions in certain areas); the revival of Section 199, which provided a deduction for domestic production activities; and the reauthorization of Section 461, permitting companies to carry back net operating losses to offset prior year tax liabilities.
