Now that THE EXPENDABLES 3 has come and gone with little fanfare, everyone's looking forward to the next couple of moves Slyvester Stallone will make. No need to speculate, however, as Stallone took it upon himself to jump on Twitter and throw us a few tidbits. First up is the project we all knew about, CREED. This pseudo-sequel to ROCKY BALBOA will follow Apollo Creed's grandson and Rocky's efforts to train him. Stallone also had a few updates regarding Rambo and what he'll take part in after that. You can read them from the man himself below.
Back in September it was rumored that the next (last?) Rambo flick would carry the LAST BLOOD moniker, but it seems that's confirmed now. Story details are still under wraps but given Stallone's knife-riddled workstation, I'm sure he'll have no problems getting into the mood. After Rambo, he'll jump into SCARPA, which will follow the life and times of hit man Greg Scarpa turned FBI informant who claimed to have more than 50 murders to his name. SCARPA is scripted by Nicholas Pileggi (CASINO, GOODFELLAS), so it looks like we'll get to see Stallone flex that dramatic muscle a bit. In any event, Stallone has a hell of a line-up ahead for us, and I'm itching to see all of 'em.
CREED, starring Sylvester Stallone and Michael B. Jordan, is aiming to hit theaters sometime in 2016.
