Recently, rumors about Sylvester Stallone's return in "Rambo 5" circled around, as the 69-year-old actor finally agreed to reprise his role as John Rambo for the last time.

According to Master Herald, the rumor started when Stallone posted a picture of Bernie Sander's caricature in his Instagram account to show his support, and also posted the link of the same picture in his Twitter account where he captioned it as ""Rambo 5, definitely a different concept."

After seeing the actor's post, rumors about "Rambo 5" starring Stallone broke out again. Fans must have thought that Stallone was hinting about his return in the movie because of his caption, and knowing how dedicated Stallone is with his job as an actor, it wouldn't be hard to believe that even if he's now turning 70 he would be willing to get back in the ring as Rambo. However, the same publication also stated that the actor hasn't released any confirmation about the rumor, and it seemed like some internet trolls just took his caption out of context just to make an unnecessary rumor.

Back in January, Variety reported that the script for "Rambo 5" was almost over and they also had the chance to interview Stallone regarding his return to reprise the role, wherein the actor stated that he really wanted to do the character one last time. He added that even his heart is telling him to do "Rambo 5," the problem is that his aged a lot since the first Rambo film and he felt like he couldn't give justice to the character anymore.

Stallone even said during the interview that the character John Rambo is not retiring with him, as he is okay with younger actors to replace him. Stallone was quoted as saying "It's like fighters that go back for one last round and get clobbered. Leave it to someone else."

On other news, even if Stallone decided to retire from his role as Rambo, the actor would still be seen on other action films. Stallone is currently filming and would still be a part of the "Expendables 4" that is set to premiere sometime next year.
