The fifth "Rambo" movie is getting closer to happening, six years after the last film in 2008. In a new interview with Vulture, Sylvester Stallone spilled that he was getting ready for the long-gestating project now that he completes "The Expendables 3".

"I'm getting ready for ['Rambo 5']. I'm starting to work out," he said. "I'm going to be appropriately vicious and all that stuff, but intellectual. A killer with a heart. Smart, yet stupid. Tall, yet short. Broad, but thin. You know what I mean. We're going to try to cover all the boundaries."

In the next movie, John Rambo will face off a Mexican cartel. Stallone previously described the new Rambo as "his version of 'No Country for Old Men'."
