Rambo isn't done fighting yet: The action hero will "go out in a blaze of glory" in Rambo 5, Sylvester Stallone revealed in a recent MTV interview getting picked up today. Stallone, 65, is working on a script revolving around John Rambo's final battle, and he implied that the Vietnam veteran could find himself fighting drug lords in Mexico, the Telegraph reports. (Quote that probably came out wrong: "I like the whole Mexican situation, what's going on down there.")

In the planned film, Rambo—who last came to the big screen in 2008—"realizes what his destiny really is," Stallone explains. "It's not to be a farmer, it's not to be obscure—it's to go out in a blaze of glory in a heroic fashion." (More Rambo stories.)
