Hollywood is running out of ideas

Too bad Sly can't step in and say hell no or the author of the books say no to it.

Jason Statham will be the new Rambo. Just you watch.

Credit where it's due, that is a great title.

Now for my disastrous casting predictions.

John Rambo will be played by Adrian Grenier who will always be smiling.
Col. Trautman will be played by Bill Pullman, still meandering around like he did in Independence Day: Resurgence.
Rambo's funny sidekick (There will be one here) will be played by Dev Patel, dialing up his trademark quick and overbearing performance up to 11.
The bad cop Teasle will be played by Denis Leary, using nothing but footage he shot for The Amazing Spiderman 2.

Finally Rambo's son can go kill all the Al Qaeda and Taliban guys that he helped in Rambo 3!

Jason Statham is too old & established for this. They will want somebody under 35yo and not expensive yet.

Jason Mamoa?

It has to be somebody ridiculously ripped and over the top - that's what makes Rambo Rambo.

Better Jason Statham than Jai Courtney.

But Jason Statham can't do an American accent. I wish he would improve on it, it would help him greatly when doing other characters.

I'm trying to imagine Jason Mamoa acting his way through an emotional breakdown. It's not working.

Haven't y'all figured out how Hollywood works by now?

-> New Blood starring Emily Blunt.

It's a darker and gritty remake but also bold in casting a female lead.

Now who will be the wise cracking sidekick? Should be a person of color to get that urban demographic.

So the new Rambo will be a Chinese spy who's working against the evil Americans?
